Psalm 62
Nonne Deo?
MY soul truly waiteth still upon God; for of him cometh my salvation.
He verily is my strength and my salvation; he is my defence, so that I shall not greatly fall.
How long will ye imagine mischief against every man? Ye shall be slain all the sort of you; yea, as a tottering wall shall ye be, and like a broken hedge.
Their device is only how to put him out whom God will exalt; their delight is in lies; they give good words with their mouth, but curse with their heart.
Nevertheless, my soul, wait thou still upon God; for my hope is in him.
He truly is my strength and my salvation; he is my defence, so that I shall not fall.
In God is my health and my glory; the rock of my might; and in God is my trust.
O put your trust in him alway, ye people; pour out your hearts before him, for God is our hope.
As for the children of men, they are but vanity; the children of men are deceitful; upon the weights they are altogether lighter than vanity itself.
O trust not in wrong and robbery; give not yourselves unto vanity: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
God spake once, and twice I have also heard the same, that power belongeth unto God;
And that thou, Lord, art merciful; for thou reward-est every man according to his work.
[Coverdale]
Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.
He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall
not be greatly moved.
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.
They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they
delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly.
Selah.
My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.
He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall
not be moved.
In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and
my refuge, is in God.
Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before
him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.
Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a
lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than
vanity.
Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if
riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power
belongeth unto God.
Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to
every man according to his work.
