To the chief Musician upon Neginah, A Psalm of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer. (MT 61:2; LXX 60:1; LXX 60:2; Rahlfs 60:1; Rahlfs 60:2)
לַמְנַצֵּ֬חַ ׀ עַֽל־נְגִינַ֬ת לְדָוִֽד׃
2From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I. (MT 61:3; LXX 60:3; Rahlfs 60:3)
שִׁמְעָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים רִנָּתִ֑י הַ֝קְשִׁ֗יבָה תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃
3For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy. (MT 61:4; LXX 60:4; Rahlfs 60:4)
מִקְצֵ֤ה הָאָ֨רֶץ ׀ אֵלֶ֣יךָ אֶ֭קְרָא בַּעֲטֹ֣ף לִבִּ֑י בְּצוּר־יָר֖וּם מִמֶּ֣נִּי תַנְחֵֽנִי׃
4I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah. (MT 61:5; LXX 60:5; Rahlfs 60:5)
כִּֽי־הָיִ֣יתָ מַחְסֶ֣ה לִ֑י מִגְדַּל־עֹ֝֗ז מִפְּנֵ֥י אוֹיֵֽב׃
5For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name. (MT 61:6; LXX 60:6; Rahlfs 60:6)
אָג֣וּרָה בְ֭אָהָלְךָ עוֹלָמִ֑ים אֶֽחֱסֶ֨ה בְסֵ֖תֶר כְּנָפֶ֣יךָ סֶּֽלָה׃
6Thou wilt prolong the king’s life: and his years as many generations. (MT 61:7; LXX 60:7; Rahlfs 60:7)
כִּֽי־אַתָּ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים שָׁמַ֣עְתָּ לִנְדָרָ֑י נָתַ֥תָּ יְ֝רֻשַּׁ֗ת יִרְאֵ֥י שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
7He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him. (MT 61:8; LXX 60:8; Rahlfs 60:8)
יָמִ֣ים עַל־יְמֵי־מֶ֣לֶךְ תּוֹסִ֑יף שְׁ֝נוֹתָ֗יו כְּמוֹ־דֹ֥ר וָדֹֽר׃
8So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows. (MT 61:9; LXX 60:9; Rahlfs 60:9)
יֵשֵׁ֣ב ע֭וֹלָם לִפְנֵ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים חֶ֥סֶד וֶ֝אֱמֶ֗ת מַ֣ן יִנְצְרֻֽהוּ׃
