1 My soul rests in God alone.
My salvation is from him.
2 He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress.
I will never be greatly shaken.
3 How long will you assault a man?
Would all of you throw him down,
like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
4 They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place.
They delight in lies.
They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.
5 My soul, wait in silence for God alone,
for my expectation is from him.
6 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress.
I will not be shaken.
7 My salvation and my honor is with God.
The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
8 Trust in him at all times, you people.
Pour out your heart before him.
God is a refuge for us. Selah.
9 Surely men of low degree are just a breath,
and men of high degree are a lie.
In the balances they will go up.
They are together lighter than a breath.
10 Don’t trust in oppression.
Don’t become vain in robbery.
If riches increase,
don’t set your heart on them.
11 God has spoken once;
twice I have heard this,
that power belongs to God.
12 Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness,
for you reward every man according to his work.
1 To the Overcomer, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. Only in God does my soul rest; from him [comes] my saving health.
2 He only [is] my rock and my saving health; [he is] my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.
3 How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? Shall ye murder each other [until ye are] as a bowing wall [and as] a tottering fence?
4 They only consult to cast [him] down from his greatness; they delight in lies; they bless with their mouth, but they curse in their inward parts. Selah.
5 My soul, rest thou only in God, for my hope [is] from him.
6 He only [is] my rock and my saving health; [he is] my defence; I shall not be moved.
7 In God [is] my saving health and my glory; the rock of my strength [and] my refuge [is] in God.
8 Wait in him at all times; [ye] peoples, pour out your heart before him; God [is] our refuge. Selah.
9 Surely the sons of Adam [are] vanity, [and] the sons of nobles [are] a lie; to be laid in the balance, they [are] altogether [lighter] than vanity.
10 Trust not in violence and become not vain in the taking of spoil; if riches increase, set not your heart [upon them].
11 God has spoken once; twice have I heard this that power [belongs] unto God.
12 Also unto thee, O Lord, [belongs] mercy, for thou renderest to every man according to his work.:
