Psalm 61:3

Contemporary English Version 1995

You are a strong tower, where I am safe from my enemies.

See the chapter Copy

The Lord is a mighty tower where his people can run for safety—

God saves me and honors me. He is that mighty rock where I find safety.

You have the power to save me, and you keep me safe in every battle.

God saved us from the threat of death, and we are sure that he will do it again and again.

You paid attention to me, and so I will pray to you as long as I live.

You are my mighty rock, my fortress, my protector, the rock where I am safe, my shield, my powerful weapon, and my place of shelter.

In times of trouble, Lord, you will protect me. You will hide me in your tent and keep me safe on top of a mighty rock.
