Psalm 61
For the director of music. A psalm of David to be played on stringed instruments.
1God, hear my cry for help.
Listen to my prayer.
2From a place far away I call out to you.
I call out as my heart gets weaker.
Lead me to the safety of a rock that is high above me.
3You have always kept me safe from my enemies.
You are like a strong tower to me.
4I long to live in your holy tent forever.
There I find safety in the shadow of your wings.
5God, you have heard my promises.
You have given me what belongs to those who worship you.
6Add many days to the king’s life.
Let him live on and on for many years.
7May he always enjoy your blessing as he rules.
Let your love and truth keep him safe.
8Then I will always sing praise to you.
I will keep my promises day after day.
Salmo 61
Al director musical. Acompáñese con instrumentos de cuerda. De David.
1Oh Dios, escucha mi clamor
y atiende a mi oración.
2Desde los confines de la tierra te invoco,
pues mi corazón desfallece;
llévame a una roca donde esté yo a salvo.
3Porque tú eres mi refugio,
mi baluarte contra el enemigo.
4Anhelo habitar en tu casa para siempre
y refugiarme debajo de tus alas. Selah
5Tú, oh Dios, has aceptado mis votos
y me has dado la heredad de quienes te honran.
6Concédele al rey más años de vida;
que sean sus días una eternidad.
7Que reine siempre en tu presencia,
y que tu amor y tu verdad lo protejan.
8Así cantaré siempre salmos a tu nombre
y cumpliré mis votos día tras día.
