Psalm 62

A CALM RESOLVE TO WAIT FOR THE SALVATION OF GOD 

To the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm of David 

62 Truly my soul silently waits for God;

From Him comes my salvation.

2 

He only is my rock and my salvation;

He is my defense;

I shall not be greatly moved.

3 

How long will you attack a man?

You shall be slain, all of you,

Like a leaning wall and a tottering fence.

4 

They only consult to cast him down from his high position;

They delight in lies;

They bless with their mouth,

But they curse inwardly. Selah

5 

My soul, wait silently for God alone,

For my expectation is from Him.

6 

He only is my rock and my salvation;

He is my defense;

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, you people;

Pour out your heart before Him;

God is a refuge for us. Selah

9 

Surely men of low degree are a vapor,

Men of high degree are a lie;

If they are weighed on the scales,

They are altogether lighter than vapor.

10 

Do not trust in oppression,

Nor vainly hope in robbery;

If riches increase,

Do not set your heart on them.

11 

God has spoken once,

Twice I have heard this:

That power belongs to God.

12 

Also to You, O Lord, belongs mercy;

For You render to each one according to his work. Psalm 62 NKJV
