New King James Version | International Standard Version |
1To the Chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. [i]A Psalm[/i] of David. Hear my cry, O God; Attend to my prayer. | 1God, hear my cry; pay attention to my prayer. |
2From the end of the earth I will cry to You, When my heart is overwhelmed; Lead me to the rock that is higher than I. | 2From the end of the earth I will cry to you whenever my heart is overwhelmed. Place me on the rock that's too high for me. |
3For You have been a shelter for me, A strong tower from the enemy. | 3For you have been a refuge for me, a tower of strength before the enemy. |
4I will abide in Your tabernacle forever; I will trust in the shelter of Your wings. Selah | 4Let me make my home in your tent forever; let me hide under the shelter of your wings. Interlude |
5For You, O God, have heard my vows; You have given me the heritage of those who fear Your name. | 5For you, God, have heard my promises; you have assigned to me the heritage of those who fear your name. |
6You will prolong the king’s life, His years as many generations. | 6Add day after day to the king's life; may his years continue for many generations. |
7He shall abide before God forever. Oh, prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him! | 7May he be enthroned before God forever; Appoint your gracious love and truth to guard him. |
8So I will sing praise to Your name forever, That I may daily perform my vows. | 8So I will sing songs to your name forever; I will fulfill my promises day by day. |
