Psaltaren 61
nuBibeln (Swedish Contemporary Bible)
Kungens bön
61 För körledaren, till stränginstrument. Av David.
2 Gud, lyssna till mitt rop!
    Hör min bön!
3 Från jordens ände ropar jag till dig i min svaghet.
    Led mig upp på klippan, som är högre än jag.
4 Du är min tillflykt,
    ett starkt torn mot fienden.
5 Jag vill för alltid bo i ditt tält
    och ta min tillflykt under dina vingars skugga. Séla
6 Du har hört mina löften, Gud,
    och du har gett mig deras arv som fruktar dig.
7 Ge kungen ett långt liv,
    många år från generation till generation.
8 Låt honom sitta på sin tron inför Gud i evighet.
    Låt din nåd och trofasthet bevara honom.
9 Då ska jag ständigt prisa ditt namn.
    Dag efter dag ska jag uppfylla mina löften.
Psalm 61

    and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.[b](H)

A Prayer for Protection[a]
61 Hear my cry, O God;
    listen to my prayer!
2 In despair and far from home
    I call to you!
Take me to a safe refuge,
3     for you are my protector,
    my strong defense against my enemies.
4 Let me live in your sanctuary all my life;
    let me find safety under your wings.
5 You have heard my promises, O God,
    and you have given me what belongs to those who honor you.
6 Add many years to the king's life;
    let him live on and on!
7 May he rule forever in your presence, O God;
    protect him with your constant love and faithfulness.
8 So I will always sing praises to you,
    as I offer you daily what I have promised.
