I

Hear my cry, O God,
    listen to my prayer!
From the ends of the earth[a] I call;
    my heart grows faint.
Raise me up, set me on a rock,
    for you are my refuge,
    a tower of strength against the foe.(A)

  1. 61:3 Ends of the earth: “earth” being taken in its occasional meaning “the underworld,” cf. Jon 2:3.

From the ends of the earth I call to you,
    I call as my heart grows faint;(A)
    lead me to the rock(B) that is higher than I.
For you have been my refuge,(C)
    a strong tower against the foe.(D)

I long to dwell(E) in your tent forever
    and take refuge in the shelter of your wings.[a](F)
