Psalm 62

1 {to the chief musician, to jeduthun, a psalm of david } truly my soul waiteth upon god from him cometh my salvation 2 he only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; i shall not be greatly moved 3 how long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence 4 they only consult to cast him down from his excellency they delight in lies they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly selah 5 my soul, wait thou only upon god; for my expectation is from him 6 he only is my rock and my salvation he is my defence; i shall not be moved 7 in god is my salvation and my glory the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in god 8 trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him god is a refuge for us selah 9 surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity 10 trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery if riches increase, set not your heart upon them 11 god hath spoken once; twice have i heard this; that power belongeth unto god 12 also unto thee, o lord, belongeth mercy for thou renderest to every man according to his work
