New Heart English Bible

1 <For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David. > Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.

2 From the most remote place of the earth, I will call to you, when my heart is overwhelmed. Lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.

4 I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.

5 For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.

6 You will prolong the king's life; his years shall be for generations.

7 He shall be enthroned in God's presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.

8 So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows day after day.
