Psalm 62:1–12

¹I am at rest in God alone;

my salvation comes from him.^b

²He alone is my rock and my salvation,^c

my stronghold; I will never be shaken.^d

³How long will you threaten a man?

Will all of you attack^A

as if he were a leaning wall

or a tottering fence?^e

⁴They only plan to bring him down

from his high position.

They take pleasure in lying;

they bless with their mouths,

but they curse inwardly.^f

Selah

⁵Rest in God alone, my soul,

for my hope comes from him.^g

⁶He alone is my rock and my salvation,^h

my stronghold; I will not be shaken.ⁱ

⁷My salvation and glory depend on God, my strong rock.

My refuge is in God.^j

⁸Trust in him at all times, you people;

pour out your hearts before him.

God is our refuge.^k

Selah

⁹Common people are only a vapor;

important people, an illusion.

Together on a scale,

they weigh less than^B a vapor.^l

¹⁰Place no trust in oppression

or false hope in robbery.

If wealth increases,

don’t set your heart on it.^m

¹¹God has spoken once;

I have heard this twice:

strength belongs to God,ⁿ

¹²and faithful love belongs to you, Lord.

For you repay each according to his works.^o
