Psalm 62:1-8

English Standard Version

My Soul Waits for God Alone

To the choirmaster: according to ^(A)Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

62 For God alone ^(B)my soul ^(C)waits in silence;
from him comes my salvation.
²^(D)He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my ^(E)fortress; ^(F)I shall not be greatly shaken.

³How long will all of you attack a man
    to batter him,
    like ^(G)a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
⁴They only plan to thrust him down from his ^(H)high position.
    They take pleasure in falsehood.
^(I)They bless with their mouths,
    but inwardly they curse. Selah

⁵For God alone, O ^(J)my soul, wait in silence,
    for my hope is from him.
⁶^(K)He only is my rock and my salvation,
    my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
⁷On God rests my ^(L)salvation and my glory;
    my mighty rock, ^(M)my refuge is God.
