King James Version

The Book of Psalms

Psalm 62

  

A Song of Trust in God

To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David.

1Truly 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.
12Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man
according to his work.
