Psalm 62

1 Truly my soul silently waits for God;
       From Him comes my salvation.
2 He only is my rock and my salvation;
       He is my [a]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. (NKJV)
