Psalms 62

Royal Kingdom

Song of Trust in God Alone
To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun.
A Psalm of David.

1

For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.

2

He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly moved.

3

How long will you set upon a man to shatter him, all of you, like a leaning wall, a tottering fence?

4

They only plan to thrust him down from his eminence. They take pleasure in falsehood. They bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse.Selah

5

For God alone my soul waits in silence, for my hope is from him.

6

He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken.

7

On God rests my deliverance and my honor; my mighty rock, my refuge is God.

8

Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us.Selah

9

Men of low estate are but a breath, men of high estate are a delusion; in the balances they go up; they are together lighter than a breath.

10

Put no confidence in extortion, set no vain hopes on robbery; if riches increase, set not your heart on them.

11

Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this: that power belongs to God;

12

and that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love. For you repay a man according to his work.
