Psalm 62a
For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David.
1 Truly my soul finds restr in God;s
my salvation comes from him.
2 Truly he is my rockt and my salvation;u
he is my fortress,v I will never be shaken.w
3 How long will you assault me?
Would all of you throw me down—
this leaning wall,x this tottering fence?
4 Surely they intend to topple me
from my lofty place;
they take delight in lies.
With their mouths they bless,
but in their hearts they curse.b y
5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God;z
my hope comes from him.
6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
7 My salvation and my honor depend on Godc;
he is my mighty rock, my refuge.a
8 Trust in him at all times, you people;b
pour out your hearts to him,c
for God is our refuge.
9 Surely the lowbornd are but a breath,e
the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance,f they are nothing;
together they are only a breath.
10 Do not trust in extortiong
or put vain hope in stolen goods;h
though your riches increase,
do not set your heart on them.i
two things I have heard:
“Power belongs to you, God,j
12 and with you, Lord, is unfailing love”;k
and, “You reward everyone
according to what they have done.”l
