KING JAMES BIBLENEW JERUSALEM
1 Hear my cry, O God; attend unto my prayer.1 [For the choirmaster For strings Of David] God, hear my cry, listen to 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.2 From the end of the earth I cal to you with fainting heart. Lead me to the high rock that stands far outof my reach.
3 For thou hast been a shelter for me, and a strong tower from the enemy.3 For you are my refuge, a strong tower against the enemy.
4 I will abide in thy tabernacle for ever: I will trust in the covert of thy wings. Selah.4 Let me stay in your tent for ever, taking refuge in the shelter of your wings!
5 For thou, O God, hast heard my vows: thou hast given me the heritage of those that fear thy name.5 For you, God, accept my vows, you grant me the heritage of those who fear your name.
6 Thou wilt prolong the king's life: and his years as many generations.6 Let the king live on and on, let his years continue age after age.
7 He shall abide before God for ever: O prepare mercy and truth, which may preserve him.7 May his throne be always in God's presence, your faithful love and constancy watch over him.
8 So will I sing praise unto thy name for ever, that I may daily perform my vows.8 Then I shal always sing to your name, day after day fulfilling my vows.
