Psalms 62 [Commentary] 
|
| 1. |
For the choir director; according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. My soul waits in silence for God only;
From Him is my salvation.
|
| 2. |
He only is my rock and my salvation,
My stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.
|
| 3. |
How long will you assail a man,
That you may murder him, all of you,
Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
|
| 4. |
They have counseled only to thrust him down from his high position;
They delight in falsehood;
They bless with their mouth,
But inwardly they curse. Selah.
|
| 5. |
My soul, wait in silence for God only,
For my hope is from Him.
|
| 6. |
He only is my rock and my salvation,
My stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
|
| 7. |
On God my salvation and my glory rest;
The rock of my strength, 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. |
Men of low degree are only vanity and men of rank are a lie;
In the balances they go up;
They are together lighter than breath.
|
| 10. |
Do not trust in oppression
And do not vainly hope in robbery;
If riches increase, do not set your heart upon them.
|
| 11. |
Once God has spoken;
Twice I have heard this:
That power belongs to God;
|
| 12. |
And lovingkindness is Yours, O Lord,
For You recompense a man according to his work.
