For God alone, O (A)my soul, wait in silence,
    for my hope is from him.
(B)He only is my rock and my salvation,
    my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
On God rests my (C)salvation and my glory;
    my mighty rock, (D)my refuge is God.

(E)Trust in him at all times, O people;
    (F)pour out your heart before him;
    God is (G)a refuge for us. Selah

(H)Those of low estate are but a breath;
    those of high estate (I)are a delusion;
in the balances they go up;
    (J)they are together lighter than a breath.
10 Put no trust in extortion;
    (K)set no vain hopes on robbery;
    (L)if riches increase, set not your heart on them.

11 (M)Once God has spoken;
    (N)twice have I heard this:
that (O)power belongs to God,
12     and that to you, O Lord, (P)belongs steadfast love.
For you will (Q)render to a man
    according to his work.
