Psalm 62:2-6
Amplified Bible
2
He alone is my rock and my salvation,
My defense and my strong tower; I will not be shaken or disheartened.
3
How long will you attack a man
So that you may murder him, all of you,
Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
4
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.
5
For God alone my soul waits in silence and quietly submits to Him,
For my hope is from Him.
6
He only is my rock and my salvation;
My fortress and my defense, I will not be shaken or discouraged.
Psalm 62:2-6
New International Version
3 How long will you assault me?
Would all of you throw me down—
this leaning wall,(E) this tottering fence?
4 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)
5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God;(G)
my hope comes from him.
6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
