1 Vir die musiekleier; op die wysie van: "Jedutun." 'n Psalm van Dawid.

2 Ja, my siel is stil tot God; van Hom is my heil.

3 Hy alleen is my rots en my heil, my rotsvesting; ek sal nie grootliks wankel nie.

4 Hoe lank sal julle aanstorm op 'n man, julle almal hom verbrysel soos 'n muur wat oorhang, 'n omgestote klipmuur?

5 Ja, hulle hou raad om hom van sy hoogte af te stoot; hulle het behae in leuens; met hul mond seën hulle, maar met hul binneste vloek hulle. Sela.

6 Wees net maar stil tot God, my siel, want van Hom is my verwagting!

7 Sekerlik, Hy is my rots en my heil, my rotsvesting; ek sal nie wankel nie.

8 By God is my heil en my eer; die rots van my sterkte, my toevlug is in God.

9 Vertrou op Hom altyd, o volk! Stort julle hart uit voor sy aangesig! God is 'n toevlug vir ons. Sela.

10 Ja, nietigheid is die mensekinders, leuens is die aansienlikes; in die weegskaal moet hulle opgaan, almal saam is hulle minder as nietigheid.

11 Vertrou nie op verdrukking en bou geen ydele hoop op rowery nie; as die vermoë aangroei, sit daar die hart nie op nie!

12 Een ding het God gespreek, twee is dit wat ek gehoor het: dat die sterkte aan God behoort, [ (Psalms 62:13) en aan U, o Here, behoort die goedertierenheid; want U vergeld elkeen na sy werk. ]

1 My soul waiteth in silence for God only:

From him cometh my salvation.

2 He only is my rock and my salvation:

He is my high tower; I shall not be greatly moved.

3 How long will ye set upon a man,

That ye may slay him, all of you,

Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

4 They only consult to thrust him down from his dignity;

They delight in lies;

They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. [Selah

5 My soul, wait thou in silence for God only;

For my expectation is from him.

6 He only is my rock and my salvation:

He is my high tower; I shall not be moved.

7 With God is my salvation and my glory:

The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

8 Trust in him at all times, ye people;

Pour out your heart before him:

God is a refuge for us. [Selah

9 Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie:

In the balances they will go up;

They are together lighter than vanity.

10 Trust not in oppression,

And become not vain in robbery:

If riches increase, set not your heart thereon.

11 God hath spoken once,

Twice have I heard this,

That power belongeth unto God.

12 Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth lovingkindness;

For thou renderest to every man according to his work.
