Psalm 62

Psalm 62

Trust in God Alone

For the choir director: according to Jeduthun. ^uA Davidic psalm.

¹I am at rest in God alone;

my salvation comes from Him. ^v

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

my stronghold; I will never be shaken. ^x

³How long will you threaten a man?

Will all of you attack ^y

as if he were a leaning wall

or a tottering stone fence? ^z

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. ^aSelah

⁵Rest in God alone, my soul,

for my hope comes from Him. ^b

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

my stronghold; I will not be shaken. ^d

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

My refuge is in God. ^e

⁸Trust in Him at all times, you people;

pour out your hearts before Him.

God is our refuge. ^fSelah

⁹Men are only a vapor;

exalted men, an illusion.

Weighed in the scales, they go up;

together they are less than a vapor. ^g

¹⁰Place no trust in oppression,

or false hope in robbery.

If wealth increases,

pay no attention to it. ^hi

¹¹God has spoken once;

I have heard this twice:

strength belongs to God, ^j

¹²and faithful love belongs to You, Lord.

For You repay each according to his works. ^k
