God Alone a Refuge from Treachery and Oppression.
For the music director; ▼▼Cf. 1 Chr 16:41; 25:1; Ps 39 and 77 titlesaccording to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
1 bMy soul waits in silence for God alone;
From Him ccomes my salvation.
2 He alone is my drock and my salvation,
My estronghold; I will not be greatly shaken.
3 How long will you attack a man,
That you may murder him, all of you,
Like a fleaning wall, like a tottering fence?
4 They have planned 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
5 My soul, jwait in silence for God alone,
For my hope is from Him.
6 He alone is kmy rock and my salvation,
My refuge; I will not be shaken.
7 My lsalvation and my glory rest on God;
The rock of my strength, my mrefuge is in God.
8 nTrust in Him at all times, you people;
oPour out your hearts before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah
9 People of plow standing are only qbreath, and people of rank are a rlie;
In the sbalances they go up.
Together they are lighter than breath.
10 tDo not trust in oppression,
And do not vainly rely on urobbery;
If wealth increases, vdo not set your heart on it.
11 God has wspoken ▼
▼Or one thing
once; ▼
▼Or These two things I have heard
Twice I have heard this: That zpower belongs to God;
12 And faithfulness aais Yours, Lord,
For You abreward a person according to his work.
