Psalm 62
Song of Trust in God Alone
To the leader: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
1 For God alone my soul waits in silence;
from him comes my salvation.(A)
2 He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall never be shaken.(B)
3 How long will you assail a person,
will you batter your victim, all of you,
as you would a leaning wall, a tottering fence?(C)
4 Their only plan is to bring down a person of prominence.
They take pleasure in falsehood;
they bless with their mouths,
but inwardly they curse. Selah(D)
5 For God alone my soul waits in silence,
for my hope is from him.
6 He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress; I shall not be shaken.(E)
7 On God rests my deliverance and my honor;
my mighty rock, my refuge is in God.(F)
8 Trust in him at all times, O people;
pour out your heart before him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah(G)
18 The wicked earn no real gain,
but those who sow righteousness get a true reward.(A)
19 Whoever is steadfast in righteousness will live,
but whoever pursues evil will die.
