Psalms, 62

1. [For the choirmaster . . . Jeduthun Psalm Of David] In God alone there is rest for my soul, from him comes my safety;

1. <To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David.> Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him [cometh] my salvation.

2. he alone is my rock, my safety, my stronghold so that I stand unshaken.

2. He only [is] my rock and my salvation; [he is] my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.

3. How much longer will you set on a victim, all together, intent on murder, like a rampart already leaning over, a wall already damaged?

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. Trickery is their only plan, deception their only pleasure, with lies on their lips they pronounce a blessing, with a curse in their hearts.Pause

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. Rest in God alone, my soul! He is the source of my hope.

5. My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation [is] from him.

6. He alone is my rock, my safety, my stronghold, so that I stand unwavering.

6. He only [is] my rock and my salvation: [he is] my defence; I shall not be moved.

7. In God is my safety and my glory, the rock of my strength. In God is my refuge;

7. In God [is] my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, [and] my refuge, [is] in God.

8. trust in him, you people, at all times. Pour out your hearts to him, God is a refuge for us.Pause

8. Trust in him at all times; [ye] people, pour out your heart before him: God [is] a refuge for us. Selah.

9. Ordinary people are a mere puff of wind, important people a delusion; set both on the scales together, and they are lighter than a puff of wind.

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. Put no trust in extortion, no empty hopes in robbery; however much wealth may multiply, do not set your heart on it.

10. Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart [upon them].

11. Once God has spoken, twice have I heard this: Strength belongs to God,

11. God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power [belongeth] unto God.

12. to you, Lord, faithful love; and you repay everyone as their deeds deserve.

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