Psalm 62

[1]   For God alone my soul waits in silence;   
         from him comes my salvation.   
[2]   He alone is my rock and my salvation,   
         my fortress; I shall never be shaken.

[3]   How long will you assail a person,   
         will you batter your victim, all of you,   
         as you would a leaning wall, a tottering fence?   
[4]   Their only plan is to bring down a person of prominence.   
         They take pleasure in falsehood;   
    they bless with their mouths,   
         but inwardly they curse.                                            
Selah

[5]   For God alone my soul waits in silence,   
         for my hope is from him.   
[6]   He alone is my rock and my salvation,   
         my fortress; I shall not be shaken.   
[7]   On God rests my deliverance and my honor;   
         my mighty rock, my refuge is in God.

[8]   Trust in him at all times, O people;   
         pour out your heart before him;   
         God is a refuge for us.                                             
     Selah

[9]   Those of low estate are but a breath,   
         those of high estate are a delusion;   
    in the balances they go up;   
         they are together lighter than a breath.   
[10]  Put no confidence in extortion,   
         and set no vain hopes on robbery;   
         if riches increase, do not set your heart on them.

[11]  Once God has spoken;   
         twice have I heard this:   
    that power belongs to God,   
[12]       and steadfast love belongs to you, O Lord.   
    For you repay to all   
         according to their work.
