Psalms 61 — 4 originals side by side

Versification differs between traditions. Columns are aligned by verse number; where a text has no such verse the cell is left blank rather than forced into line. Tap any word for a gloss.

⚠️ The Chinese and English alongside are the CUV and the WEB, both translated from the Masoretic Text; they follow a different textual tradition from the Greek and Latin shown here and will disagree in places.
ℹ️ Some verses here have no matching verse in the public-domain translations (the Psalm superscriptions are not numbered verses in the CUV or the WEB). Those verses were translated by this site with AI (Claude), not taken from the WEB.

61:0
לַמְנַצֵּ֬חַ׀עַֽל־נְגִינַ֬ת לְדָוִֽד׃
εἰς τὸ τέλος ἐν ὕμνοις τῷ Δαυιδ
In finem. In hymnis David.
—
For the Chief Musician. On a stringed instrument. By David.
61:1
שִׁמְעָ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים רִנָּתִ֑י הַ֝קְשִׁ֗יבָה תְּפִלָּתִֽי׃
εἰσάκουσον ὁ θεός τῆς δεήσεώς μου πρόσχες τῇ προσευχῇ μου
Exaudi, Deus, deprecationem meam ; intende orationi meae.
ፍጻሜ ፡ ማኅሌት ፡ ዘዳዊት ። ስምዐኒ ፡ አምላኪየ ፡ ስእለትየ ፤ ወአፅምአኒ ፡ ጸሎትየ ።
Hear my cry, God. Listen to my prayer.
61:2
מִקְצֵ֤ה הָאָ֨רֶץ׀ אֵלֶ֣יךָ אֶ֭קְרָא בַּעֲטֹ֣ף לִבִּ֑י בְּצוּר־יָר֖וּם מִמֶּ֣נִּי תַנְחֵֽנִי׃
ἀπὸ τῶν περάτων τῆς γῆς πρὸς σὲ ἐκέκραξα ἐν τῷ ἀκηδιάσαι τὴν καρδίαν μου ἐν πέτρᾳ ὕψωσάς με
A finibus terrae ad te clamavi, dum anxiaretur cor meum ; in petra exaltasti me. Deduxisti me,
እምአጽናፈ ፡ ምድር ፡ ጸራኅኩ ፡ ኀቤከ ፡ ሶበ ፡ ቀብጸኒ ፡ ልብየ ፤ ወእምእብን ፡ አልዐልከኒ ፡ ወመራሕከኒ ።
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.
61:3
כִּֽי־הָיִ֣יתָ מַחְסֶ֣ה לִ֑י מִגְדַּל־עֹ֝֗ז מִפְּנֵ֥י אוֹיֵֽב׃
ὡδήγησάς με ὅτι ἐγενήθης ἐλπίς μου πύργος ἰσχύος ἀπὸ προσώπου ἐχθροῦ
quia factus es spes mea : turris fortitudinis a facie inimici.
እስመ ፡ ተስፋየ ፡ ኮንከኒ ፤ ማኅፈድ ፡ ጽኑዕ ፡ ቅድመ ፡ ገጸ ፡ ጸላኢ ።
For you have been a refuge for me, a strong tower from the enemy.
61:4
אָג֣וּרָה בְ֭אׇהׇלְךָ עוֹלָמִ֑ים אֶ֥חֱסֶ֨ה בְסֵ֖תֶר כְּנָפֶ֣יךָ סֶּֽלָה׃
παροικήσω ἐν τῷ σκηνώματί σου εἰς τοὺς αἰῶνας σκεπασθήσομαι ἐν σκέπῃ τῶν πτερύγων σου διάψαλμα
Inhabitabo in tabernaculo tuo in saecula ; protegar in velamento alarum tuarum.
እነብር ፡ ቤተከ ፡ ለዓለም ፤ ወእትከደን ፡ በጽላሎተ ፡ ክነፊከ ።
I will dwell in your tent forever. I will take refuge in the shelter of your wings. Selah.
61:5
כִּֽי־אַתָּ֣ה אֱ֭לֹהִים שָׁמַ֣עְתָּ לִנְדָרָ֑י נָתַ֥תָּ יְ֝רֻשַּׁ֗ת יִרְאֵ֥י שְׁמֶֽךָ׃
ὅτι σύ ὁ θεός εἰσήκουσας τῶν εὐχῶν μου ἔδωκας κληρονομίαν τοῖς φοβουμένοις τὸ ὄνομά σου
Quoniam tu, Deus meus, exaudisti orationem meam ; dedisti haereditatem timentibus nomen tuum.
እስመ ፡ አንተ ፡ አምላኪየ ፡ ሰማዕከኒ ፡ ጸሎትየ ፤ ወወሀብኮሙ ፡ ርስተ ፡ ለእለ ፡ ይፈርሁከ ።
For you, God, have heard my vows. You have given me the heritage of those who fear your name.
61:6
יָמִ֣ים עַל־יְמֵי־מֶ֣לֶךְ תּוֹסִ֑יף שְׁ֝נוֹתָ֗יו כְּמוֹ־דֹ֥ר וָדֹֽר׃
ἡμέρας ἐφ’ ἡμέρας βασιλέως προσθήσεις ἔτη αὐτοῦ ἕως ἡμέρας γενεᾶς καὶ γενεᾶς
Dies super dies regis adjicies ; annos ejus usque in diem generationis et generationis.
እምዕለት ፡ ዕለተ ፡ ይዌስክ ፡ ንጉሥ ፤ ዐመቲሁ ፡ እስከ ፡ መዋዕለ ፡ ትውለደ ፡ ትውለድ ።
You will prolong the king’s life. His years will be for generations.
61:7
יֵשֵׁ֣ב ע֭וֹלָם לִפְנֵ֣י אֱלֹהִ֑ים חֶ֥סֶד וֶ֝אֱמֶ֗ת מַ֣ן יִנְצְרֻֽהוּ׃
διαμενεῖ εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα ἐνώπιον τοῦ θεοῦ ἔλεος καὶ ἀλήθειαν αὐτοῦ τίς ἐκζητήσει
Permanet in aeternum in conspectu Dei : misericordiam et veritatem ejus quis requiret ?
ወይነብር ፡ ለዓለም ፡ ቅድመ ፡ እግዚአብሔር ፤ መኑ ፡ የኀሥሥ ፡ ሣህሎ ፡ ወጽድቆ ።
He shall be enthroned in God’s presence forever. Appoint your loving kindness and truth, that they may preserve him.
61:8
כֵּ֤ן אֲזַמְּרָ֣ה שִׁמְךָ֣ לָעַ֑ד לְֽשַׁלְּמִ֥י נְ֝דָרַ֗י י֣וֹם׀יֽוֹם׃ {פ}
οὕτως ψαλῶ τῷ ὀνόματί σου εἰς τὸν αἰῶνα τοῦ αἰῶνος τοῦ ἀποδοῦναί με τὰς εὐχάς μου ἡμέραν ἐξ ἡμέρας
Sic psalmum dicam nomini tuo in saeculum saeculi, ut reddam vota mea de die in diem.
ከመዝ ፡ እዜምር ፡ ለስምከ ፡ ለዓለም ፤ ከመ ፡ ተሀበኒ ፡ ተምኔትየ ፡ ኵሎ ፡ አሚረ ።
So I will sing praise to your name forever, that I may fulfill my vows daily.
