ESVEnglish Standard Version

He only is my rock and my salvation,

my fortress; I shall not be shaken.

On God rests my salvation and my glory;

my mighty rock, my refuge is God.

Trust in him at all times, O people;

pour out your heart before him;

God is a refuge for us. Selah

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.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

Truly he is my rock and my salvation;

he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.

My salvation and my honor depend on God;

he is my mighty rock, my refuge.

Trust in him at all times, you people;

pour out your hearts to him,

for God is our refuge.

Surely the lowborn are but a breath,

the highborn are but a lie.

If weighed on a balance, they are nothing;

together they are only a breath.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

He alone is my rock and my salvation,

my stronghold; I will not be shaken.

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

My refuge is in God.

Trust in him at all times, you people;

pour out your hearts before him.

God is our refuge.

Selah

Common people are only a vapor;

important people, an illusion.

Together on a scale,

they weigh less than a vapor.

NLTNew Living Translation

He alone is my rock and my salvation,

my fortress where I will not be shaken.

My victory and honor come from God alone.

He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me.

O my people, trust in him at all times.

Pour out your heart to him,

for God is our refuge.

Interlude

Common people are as worthless as a puff of wind,

and the powerful are not what they appear to be.

If you weigh them on the scales,

together they are lighter than a breath of air.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Only he is my rock and my salvation,

my high stronghold; I shall not be shaken.

On God rests my salvation and my glory;

God is my strong rock, my refuge.

Trust him at all times, O people;

pour out before him your heart.

God is a refuge for us. Selah

Only a vapor are men of low degree,

a deception are men of high degree.

Weighed in a balance,

together they are lighter than a vapor.
