Psalm 60


1 For the end, among the Hymns of David.

2 O God, hearken to my petition;

attend to my prayer.

3 From the ends of the earth have I cried to thee,

when my heart was in trouble:

thou liftedst me up on a rock,

thou didst guide me: 4 because thou wert my hope,

a tower of strength from the face of the enemy.

5 I will dwell in thy tabernacle for ever;

I will shelter myself under the shadow of thy wings.

Pause.

6 For thou, O God, hast heard my prayers;

thou hast given an inheritance to them that fear thy name.

7 Thou shalt add days to the days of the king;

thou shalt lengthen his years to all generations.

8 He shall endure for ever before God:

which of them will seek out his mercy and truth?

9 So will I sing to thy name for ever and ever,

that I may daily perform my vows.
