# Chapter 62
|
|
1 For God alone my soul waits in silence;
|
|
from him comes my salvation.
|
|
2 He alone is my rock and my salvation,
|
|
my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken.
|
|
3 How long will all of you attack a man
|
|
to batter him,
|
|
like a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
|
|
4 They only plan to thrust him down from his high position.
|
|
They take pleasure in falsehood.
|
|
They bless with their mouths,
|
|
but inwardly they curse. Selah
|
|
5 For God alone, O my soul, wait 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 salvation and my glory;
|
|
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 Those of low estate are but a breath;
|
|
those of high estate are a delusion;
|
|
in the balances they go up;
|
|
they are together lighter than a breath.
|
|
10 Put no trust 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 will render to a man
|
|
according to his work. |
