For the Chief Musician. For a stringed instrument. By David.

[1] Hear my cry, God.
Listen to my prayer.
[2] From the end 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 will 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 daily.
King James Version

[7] He shall abide H3427 before H6440 God H430 for ever: H5769
O prepare H4487 mercy H2617 and truth, H571 which may preserve H5341 him.
[8] So H3651 will I sing H2167 praise unto thy name H8034 for ever, H5703
