Psalms 62:1-12
To the director; of Je·duʹthun.* A melody of David.
62 Indeed, I wait* silently for God.
My salvation comes from him.+
2 Indeed, he is my rock and my salvation, my secure refuge;*+I will never be greatly shaken.+
3 How long will you assault a man in order to murder him?+
All of you are as dangerous as a leaning wall, a stone wall ready to collapse.*
4 For they consult together to topple him from his high position;*They take pleasure in lying.
With their mouth they bless, but inside they are cursing.+ (Selah)
5 Indeed, I wait silently* for God+Because my hope comes from him.+
6 Indeed, he is my rock and my salvation, my secure refuge;I will never be shaken.+
7 Upon God depends my salvation and my glory.
My strong rock, my refuge, is God.+
8 Trust in him at all times, O people.
Pour out your hearts before him.+
God is a refuge for us.+ (Selah)
9 The sons of men are a mere breath,The sons of mankind are a delusion.+
When laid together on the scales, they are lighter than a mere breath.+
10 Do not trust in extortionOr put false hopes in robbery.
If your wealth increases, do not set your heart on it.+
11 Once God has spoken, twice I have heard this:
That strength belongs to God.+
12 Also loyal love is yours, O Jehovah,+For you repay each one according to his deeds.+
