Psalms 62

1 My soul waiteth in silence for God only: From himcomethmy salvation.

1 My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my salvation.

1To the Overseer, for Jeduthun. --A Psalm of David. Only--toward God <FI>is<Fi> my soul silent, From Him <FI>is<Fi> my salvation.

2He only is my rock and my salvation: He ismy high tower; I shall not be greatly moved.

2He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.

2Only--He <FI>is<Fi> my rock, and my salvation, My tower, I am not much moved.

3How long will ye set upon a man, That ye may slay him, all of you, Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

3How long will you go on designing evil against a man? running against him as against a broken wall, which is on the point of falling?

3Till when do ye devise mischief against a man? Ye are destroyed all of you, As a wall inclined, a hedge that is cast down.

4They only consult to thrust him down from his dignity; They delight in lies; They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. [Selah

4Their only thought is to put him down from his place of honour; their delight is in deceit: blessing is in their mouths but cursing in their hearts. (Selah.)

4Only--from his excellency They have consulted to drive away, They enjoy a lie, with their mouth they bless, And with their heart revile. Selah.

5My soul, wait thou in silence for God only; For my expectation is from him.

5My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my hope.

5Only--for God, be silent, O my soul, For from Him <FI>is<Fi> my hope.

6He only is my rock and my salvation: He ismy high tower; I shall not be moved.

6He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.

6Only--He <FI>is<Fi> my rock and my salvation, My tower, I am not moved.

7With God is my salvation and my glory: The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

7In God is my salvation, and my glory; the Rock of my strength, and my safe place.

7On God <FI>is<Fi> my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my strength, my refuge <FI>is<Fi> in God.

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

8Have faith in him at all times, you people; let your hearts go flowing out before him: God is our safe place. (Selah.)

8Trust in Him at all times, O people, Pour forth before Him your heart, God <FI>is<Fi> a refuge for us. Selah.

9Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: In the balances they will go up; They are together lighter than vanity.

9Truly men of low birth are nothing, and men of high position are not what they seem; if they are put in the scales together they are less than a breath.

9Only--vanity <FI>are<Fi> the low, a lie the high. In balances to go up they than vanity <FI>are<Fi> lighter.

10Trust not in oppression, And become not vain in robbery: If riches increase, set not your heart thereon.

10Have no faith in the rewards of evil-doing, or in profits wrongly made: if your wealth is increased, do not put your hopes on it.

10Trust not in oppression, And in robbery become not vain, Wealth--when it increaseth--set not the heart.

11God hath spoken once, Twice have I heard this, That power belongeth unto God.

11Once has God said, twice has it come to my ears, that power is God's:

11Once hath God spoken, twice I heard this, That `strength <FI>is<Fi> with God.'

12Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth lovingkindness; For thou renderest to every man according to his work.

12And mercy, O Lord, is yours, for you give to every man the reward of his work.

12And with Thee, O Lord, <FI>is<Fi> kindness, For Thou dost recompense to each, According to his work!
