Psalms 62

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.

1Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.

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

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

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.

3How 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.

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.

4They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

9Surely 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.

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

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

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

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

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

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