| 61:1 | To the chief Musician upon Neginah, of David. Hear my cry, O God; attend to my prayer. | |
| 61:2 | From the end of the earth will I cry to thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock is higher than I. | |
| 61:3 | For thou hast been a shelter for me, a strong tower from the enemy. | |
| 61:4 | I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah. | |
| 61:5 | For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given the heritage of those that fear thy name. | |
| 61:6 | Thou wilt prolong the king's life: his years as many generations. | |
| 61:7 | He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, may preserve him. | |
| 61:8 | So will I sing praise to thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows. | |
