Psalm 61:1-2
EasyEnglish Bible

David wrote this song. Tell the music leader to use stringed instruments.

God will keep me safe[a]

61 God, please hear me when I call to you for help.
    Listen carefully to my prayer.
2 I will call out to you from far away,
    because I am sad and weak.
Lead me to a strong, safe rock
    that is higher than I am.

Footnotes

  1. 61:1 David was far away from Jerusalem, his home. He was probably fighting his enemies. Sometimes he was sad and afraid. He did not feel brave enough to fight, but he asked God for help. God was like a strong rock where David could hide and be safe.
