Psalms 62

God Alone a Refuge from Treachery and Oppression.

For the choir director; ^{▼▼ Cf 1 Chr 16:41; 25:1; Psa.39.. and 77 titles}according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

1 ^bMy soul waits in silence for God only;
From Him ^cis my salvation.
2 He only is my ^drock and my salvation,
My ^estronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.

3 How long will you assail a man,
That you may murder him, all of you,
Like a ^fleaning wall, like a tottering fence?
4 They have counseled only to thrust him down from his high position;
They ^gdelight in falsehood;
They ^hbless with ^{▼▼ Lit his}their mouth,
But inwardly they curse. ^{▼▼ Selah may mean: Pause, Crescendo or Musical interlude}Selah.

5 My soul, ^kwait in silence for God only,
For my hope is from Him.
6 He only is ^lmy rock and my salvation,
My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
7 On God my ^msalvation and my glory rest;
The rock of my strength, my ⁿrefuge is in God.
8 ^oTrust in Him at all times, O people;
^pPour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah.

9 Men of ^qlow degree are only ^rvanity and men of rank are a ^slie;
In the ^tbalances they go up;
They are together lighter than breath.
10 ^uDo not trust in oppression
And do not ^{▼▼ Lit become vain in robbery}vainly hope in ^wrobbery;
If riches increase, ^xdo not set your heart upon them.

11 ^{▼▼ Or One thing}Once God has ^zspoken;
^{▼▼ Or These two things I have heard}Twice I have heard this:
That ^abpower belongs to God;
12 And lovingkindness ^acis Yours, O Lord,
For You ^adrecompense a man according to his work.
