He alone is my rock and my salvation,
My defense and my strong tower; I will not be shaken or disheartened.


How long will you attack a man
So that you may murder him, all of you,
Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

They consult only to throw him down from his high position [to dishonor him];
They delight in lies.
They bless with [the words of] their mouths,
But inwardly they curse. Selah.


For God alone my soul waits in silence and quietly submits to Him,
For my hope is from Him.

He only is my rock and my salvation;
My fortress and my defense, I will not be shaken or discouraged.

Truly he is my rock(A) and my salvation;(B)
    he is my fortress,(C) I will never be shaken.(D)

How long will you assault me?
    Would all of you throw me down—
    this leaning wall,(E) this tottering fence?
Surely they intend to topple me
    from my lofty place;
    they take delight in lies.
With their mouths they bless,
    but in their hearts they curse.[a](F)

Yes, my soul, find rest in God;(G)
    my hope comes from him.
Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
    he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
