1 To the Overseer, for Jeduthun. -- A Psalm of David. Only -- toward God [is] my soul silent, From Him [is] my salvation.2 Only -- He [is] my rock, and my salvation, My tower, I am not much moved.3 Till when do ye devise mischief against a man? Ye are destroyed all of you, As a wall inclined, a hedge that is cast down.4 Only -- from his excellency They have consulted to drive away, They enjoy a lie, with their mouth they bless, And with their heart revile. Selah.5 Only -- for God, be silent, O my soul, For from Him [is] my hope.6 Only -- He [is] my rock and my salvation, My tower, I am not moved.7 On God [is] my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my strength, my refuge [is] in God.8 Trust in Him at all times, O people, Pour forth before Him your heart, God [is] a refuge for us. Selah.9 Only -- vanity [are] the low, a lie the high. In balances to go up they than vanity [are] lighter.10 Trust not in oppression, And in robbery become not vain, Wealth -- when it increaseth -- set not the heart.11 Once hath God spoken, twice I heard this, That `strength [is] with God.`12 And with Thee, O Lord, [is] kindness, For Thou dost recompense to each, According to his work!

1 My soul waiteth only upon God: 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 bowing wall, like a tottering fence?

4 They only consult to thrust him down from his excellency; they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah

5 My soul, wait thou only upon God; 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 mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
