Psalms 62

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

1 UponGod alone doth my soul rest peacefully; from him is 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.

1A psalm of David while he was in the desert of Edom.

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

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

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

2O God, my God, to thee do I watch at break of day. For thee my soul hath thirsted; for thee my flesh, O how many ways!

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

3 How long will ye assail a man; will ye [seek], all of you, to break him down as a bowing wall or a tottering fence?

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.

3In a desert land, and where there is no way, and no water: so in the sanctuary have I come before thee, to see thy power and thy glory.

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

4 They only consult to thrust [him] down from his excellency; they delight in lies; they bless with their mouth, but in their inward part they curse. 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.

4For thy mercy is better than lives: thee my lips will praise.

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

5 UponGod alone, O my soul, rest peacefully; for my expectation is from him.

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

5Thus will I bless thee all my life long: and in thy name I will lift up my hands.

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

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

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

6Let my soul be filled as with marrow and fatness: and my mouth shall praise thee with joyful lips.

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

7 WithGod is my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength, my refuge is inGod.

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

7If I have remembered thee upon my bed, I will meditate on thee in the morning:

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

8 Confide in him at all times, ye people; pour out your heart before him:God is our refuge. Selah.

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

8Because thou hast been my helper. And I will rejoice under the cover of thy wings:

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.

9 Men of low degree are only vanity; men of high degree, a lie: laid in the balance, they go up together [lighter] than vanity.

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

9My soul hath stuck close to thee: thy right hand hath received me.

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

10 Put not confidence in oppression, and become not vain in robbery; if wealth increase, set not your heart upon it.

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

10But they have sought my soul in vain, they shall go into the lower parts of the earth:

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

11 Once hathGod spoken, twice have I heard this, that strength [belongeth] untoGod.

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

11They shall be delivered into the hands of the sword, they shall be the portions of foxes.

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

12 And unto thee, O Lord, [belongeth] loving-kindness; for thou renderest to every man according to his work.

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

12But the king shall rejoice in God, all they shall be praised that swear by him: because the mouth is stopped of them that speak wicked things.
