Salmos 61
Palabra de Dios para Todos
Protección para el gobernante fiel
Al director, con instrumentos de cuerda. Canción de David.
1 Dios mío, escucha mi grito de auxilio,
    presta atención a mi oración.
2 Desde los lejanos rincones de la tierra te llamo,
    pues estoy angustiado.
Llévame a la roca que es más alta de lo que puedo alcanzar,
    donde quede yo a salvo.
3 Tú eres mi refugio,
    la torre fuerte que me protege de mis enemigos.
4 Quiero vivir para siempre en tu casa[a],
    refugiado debajo de tus alas. Selah
5 Dios mío, has escuchado mis promesas
    y me has dado la herencia de quienes te respetan.
6 Dale larga vida al rey,
    haz que viva muchos, pero muchos años.
7 Haz que reine siempre en tu presencia.
    Protégelo con tu fiel amor y lealtad.
8 Así yo siempre alabaré tu nombre,
    cumpliendo siempre todo lo que te prometí.
