Psalm 62

Jubilee Bible 2000

To the Overcomer, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David.

¹ ¶ Only in God does my soul rest; from him comes my saving health.

² He only is my rock and my saving health; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.

³ How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? Shall ye murder each other until ye are as a bowing wall and as a tottering fence?

⁴ They only consult to cast him down from his greatness; they delight in lies; they bless with their mouth, but they curse in their inward parts. Selah.

⁵ My soul, rest thou only in God, for my hope is from him.

⁶ He only is my rock and my saving health; he is my defence; I shall not be moved.

⁷ In God is my saving health and my glory; the rock of my strength and my refuge is in God.

⁸ ¶ Wait in him at all times; ye peoples, pour out your heart before him; God is our refuge. Selah.

⁹ Surely the sons of Adam are vanity, and the sons of nobles are a lie; to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity.

¹⁰ Trust not in violence and become not vain in the taking of spoil; if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.

¹¹ God has spoken once; twice have I heard this that power belongs unto God.

¹² Also unto thee, O Lord, belongs mercy, for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
