Chapter 62 |
1 | Truly my soul
waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation. |
2 | He only is my
rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.
|
3 | How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all
of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence. |
4 | They
only consult to cast 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 defence; I shall not be moved. |
7 | In 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: to be laid in the balance, they
are altogether lighter than vanity. |
10 | Trust not in oppression, and
become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon
them. |
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. |
