Psalms, Chapter 61
1. Hear, O God, my loud cry, Attend unto my prayer:
2. From the end of the earth, unto thee do I cry, When my heart fainteth away, Unto a rock that is higher than I, wilt thou lead me.
3. For thou hast been, A Refuge to me, A Tower of Strength, from the face of the foe.
4. I would be a guest in thy tent to the ages, I would seek refuge in the concealment of thy wings. [Selah.]
5. For, thou, O God, hast hearkened to my vows, Thou hast granted a possession, unto them who revere thy Name.
6. Days -- unto the days of the king, wilt thou add. His years, as of generation after generation:
7. Let him retain his seat age-abidingly before God, Appoint that, lovingkindness and faithfulness, my watch over him!
8. So, will I sing thy Name unto futurity, Paying my vows, day by day.

Text source: Public Domain: Rotherham s Emphasized Bible (abbreviated EBR to avoid confusion with the REB) is a translation of the Bible that uses various methods, such as emphatic idiom and special diacritical marks, to bring out nuances of the underlying Greek, Hebrew, and Aramaic texts. It was produced by Joseph Bryant Rotherham, a bible scholar and minister of the Churches of Christ, who described his goal as placing the reader of the present time in as good a position as that occupied by the reader of the first century for understanding the Apostolic Writings.
