Psalm 61
King James Version
61 Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.
2 From the end of the earth will I cry unto thee, when my heart is overwhelmed: lead me to the rock that is higher than I.
3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.
4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.
5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.
6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations.
7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.
8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.

Reina Valera Contemporánea
Confianza en la protección de Dios
Al músico principal. Sobre Neginot. Salmo de David.
61 Dios mío, ¡escucha mi clamor!
¡Atiende mi oración!
2 ¡Clamo a ti desde los confines de la tierra,
pues ya mi corazón desfallece!
Llévame a una roca más alta que yo,
3 porque tú eres mi refugio,
¡eres fuerte torre que me protege del enemigo!
4 Yo habitaré en tu templo para siempre;
bajo la sombra de tus alas estaré seguro.
5 Tú, Dios mío, has escuchado mis votos,
y has dado a los que temen tu nombre
la tierra que les prometiste.
6 Al rey le has concedido más días de vida,
y vivirá sus años de una a otra generación.
7 Siempre reinará delante de ti, Dios nuestro,
protegido por tu misericordia y tu verdad.
8 Y yo, siempre cantaré salmos a tu nombre,
y todos los días te cumpliré mis votos.
