1 To the chief music-maker. After Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David. 2 \62:1\My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my salvation.3 \62:2\He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.4 \62:3\How long will you go on designing evil against a man? running against him as against a broken wall, which is on the point of falling?5 \62:4\Their only thought is to put him down from his place of honour; their delight is in deceit: blessing is in their mouths but cursing in their hearts. (Selah.)6 \62:5\My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my hope.7 \62:6\He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.8 \62:7\In God is my salvation, and my glory; the Rock of my strength, and my safe place.9 \62:8\Have faith in him at all times, you people; let your hearts go flowing out before him: God is our safe place. (Selah.)10 \62:9\Truly men of low birth are nothing, and men of high position are not what they seem; if they are put in the scales together they are less than a breath.11 \62:10\Have no faith in the rewards of evil-doing, or in profits wrongly made: if your wealth is increased, do not put your hopes on it.12 \62:11\Once has God said, twice has it come to my ears, that power is God's:13 \62:12\And mercy, O Lord, is yours, for you give to every man the reward of his work.

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. ]
