1 To victory, on organs, to David himself. God, hear thou my beseeching; give thou attention to my prayer. (For the choirmaster, with stringed instruments, a song by David. God, hear thou my plea; give thou attention to my prayer.)
2 From the ends of the land I cried to thee; the while mine heart was anguished, thou enhancedest me in a stone, (or and while my heart was anguished, thou liftedest me up on a rock). Thou leddest me forth,
3 for thou art made mine hope; a tower of strength from the face of the enemy. (for thou art made my hope; a tower of strength before my enemies.)
4 I shall dwell in thy tabernacle into worlds; I shall be covered in the covering of thy wings. (I shall live in thy Tent forever or I shall live in thy dwelling place forever; I shall be covered with the covering of thy wings.)
5 For thou, my God, hast heard my prayer; thou hast given heritage to them that dread thy name (or thou hast given me the inheritance of those who fear thy name or of those who revere thy name).
