For the leader; with instrumental music. Of David. Hear my cry, O God,
heed my prayer. From the end of the earth I call to You;
when my heart is faint,
You lead me to a rock that is high above me. For You have been my refuge,
a tower of strength against the enemy. O that I might dwell in Your tent forever,
take refuge under Your protecting wings. Selah. O God, You have heard my vows;
grant the requestarequest Taking the noun yrsht as an alternate form of ʼrsht; cf. Ps. 21.3. of those who fear Your name. Add days to the days of the king;
may his years extend through generations; may he dwell in God’s presence forever;
