Psalms 62

God alone a refuge from treachery and oppression.

For the Chief Musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

¹My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him.

²He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress -- I will never be greatly shaken.

³How long will you assault a man, Would all of you throw him down, Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

⁴They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

⁵My soul, wait in silence for God alone, For my expectation is from him.

⁶He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress. I will not be shaken.

⁷With God is my salvation and my honor. The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

⁸Trust in him at all times, you people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. Selah.

⁹Surely men of low degree are just a breath, And men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.

¹⁰Don`t trust in oppression. Don`t become vain in robbery. If riches increase, Don`t set your heart on them.

¹¹God has spoken once, Twice have I heard this, That power belongs to God.

¹²Also to you, Lord, belongs lovingkindness, For you reward every man according to his work.
