Psalm 62

To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David.
1.Truly62-1 my soul waiteth62-2 upon God: from him cometh my salvation.
2.He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence62-3; I shall not be greatly moved.
3.How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence.
4.They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly62-4. Selah.
5.My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
6.He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.
7.In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
8.Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.
9.Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether62-5 lighter than vanity.
10.Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
11.God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power62-6 belongeth unto God.
12.Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
