Salmos 61

1 For the end, a Psalm of David for Jeduthun.

2 Shall not my soul be subjected to God?

For of him is my salvation.

3 For he is my God and my Savior;

My helper, I shall not be moved very much.

4 How long will ye assault a man?

Ye are all slaughtering

As with a bowed wall and a broken hedge.

5 They only took counsel to set at nought mine honor:

I ran in thirst:

With their mouth they blessed, but with their heart they cursed. Pause.

6 Nevertheless do thou, my soul, be subjected to God;

For of him is my patient hope.

7 For he is my God and my Savior;

My helper, I shall not be moved.

8 In God is my salvation and my glory:

He is the God of my help, and my hope is in God.

9 Hope in him, all ye congregation of the people;

Pour out your hearts before him, for God is our helper. Pause.

10 But the sons of men are vain;

The sons of men are false, so as to be deceitful in the balances;

They are all alike formed out of vanity.

11 Trust not in unrighteousness,

And lust not after robberies:

If wealth should flow in, set not your heart upon it.

12 God has spoken once, and I have heard these two things,

That power is of God; 13 and mercy is thine, O Lord;

For thou wilt recompense every one according to his works.
