2 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;

he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.

3 How long will you assault me?

Would all of you throw me down—

this leaning wall, this tottering fence?

2 He only is my rock and my salvation;

He is my defence; 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.

2 He alone is my rock and my salvation,

my fortress where I will never be shaken.

3 So many enemies against one man—

all of them trying to kill me.

To them I’m just a broken-down wall

or a tottering fence.

2 He only is my rock and my salvation;

He is my defense;

I shall not be greatly moved.

3 How long will you attack a man?

You shall be slain, all of you,

Like a leaning wall and a tottering fence.

2 He is my rock and my salvation.

He is my defender;

I will not be defeated.

3 How long will you attack someone?

Will all of you kill that person?

Who is like a leaning wall, like a fence ready to fall?

2 He only is my rock and my salvation:

He is my high tower;

I shall not be greatly moved.

3 How long will ye set upon a man,

That ye may slay him, all of you,

Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

2 He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be greatly moved. 3 How long will ye assail a man; will ye seek, all of you, to break him down as a bowing wall or a tottering fence?

2 He alone is my rock and my savior—my stronghold. 

I cannot be severely shaken. 

3 How long will all of you attack a person? 

How long will you try to murder him, 

as though he were a leaning wall or a sagging fence? 

2 He alone is my rock and my salvation,

my stronghold; I will never be shaken.

3 How long will you threaten a man?

Will all of you attack

as if he were a leaning wall

or a tottering stone fence?

2 He alone is my rock and my salvation,

my fortress; I shall never be shaken.

3 How long will you assail a person,

will you batter your victim, all of you,

as you would a leaning wall, a tottering fence?

2 Only he is my rock and my salvation,

my high stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.

3 How long will you attack a man?

All of you will be shattered

like a leaning wall, a tottering fence.

2 He alone is my rock. He is the One who saves me.

He is like a fort to me. I will always be secure.

3 How long will you enemies attack me?

Will all of you throw me down?

I’m like a leaning wall.

I’m like a fence that is about to fall.

2 He only is my rock and my salvation,

My stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.

3 How long will you assail a man,

That you may murder him, all of you,

Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
