62:1 For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David. My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him.
62:2 He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.
62:3 How long will you assault a man? Would all of you throw him down–this leaning wall, this tottering fence?
62:4 They fully intend to topple him from his lofty place; they take delight in lies. With their mouths they bless, but in their hearts they curse. Selah
62:5 Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him.
62:6 He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
62:7 My salvation and my honor depend on God; he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
62:8 Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge. Selah
62:9 Lowborn men are but a breath, the highborn are but a lie; if weighed on a balance, they are nothing; together they are only a breath.
62:10 Do not trust in extortion or take pride in stolen goods; though your riches increase, do not set your heart on them.
62:11 One thing God has spoken, two things have I heard: that you, O God, are strong,
62:12 and that you, O Lord, are loving. Surely you will reward each person according to what he has done.
62:1 My soul waits in silence for God alone; / My salvation is from Him.
62:2 He alone is my rock and my salvation, / My high retreat; I will not be greatly shaken.
62:3 How long will you assail a man / So that you may slay him, all of you, / Like a leaning wall or a tottering fence?
62:4 They only make plans to thrust him down from his dignity; / They take delight in lies; / With their mouth they bless, / But inwardly they curse. Selah
62:5 My soul, wait in silence for God alone, / For my expectation is from Him.
62:6 He alone is my rock and my salvation, / My high retreat; I will not be shaken.
62:7 On God my salvation and my glory depend; / The rock of my strength, my refuge, is in God.
62:8 Trust in Him at all times, O people; / Pour out your heart before Him; / God is a refuge to us. Selah
62:9 Men of low degree are but a vapor; / Men of high degree, a lie. / In the balances they go up; / Together they are less than a vapor.
62:10 Do not trust in oppression, / And do not vainly hope in robbery; / If wealth increases, / Do not set your heart on it.
62:11 Once has God spoken; / Twice have I heard this, / That strength belongs to God.
62:12 To You also, O Lord, belongs lovingkindness; / For You repay every man according to his work.
