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. |
