1Psalm 62 Trust in God Alone - For the leader; ‘al Jeduthun. A psalm of David. 2I - My soul rests in God alone, from whom comes my salvation. 3God alone is my rock and salvation, my fortress; I shall never fall. 4How long will you set yourself against a man? You shall all be destroyed, Like a sagging wall or a tumbled down fence! 5Even highly placed people plot to overthrow him. They delight in lies; they bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse. Selah 6II - My soul, be at rest in God alone, from whom comes my hope. 7God alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not fall. 8My deliverance and honor are with God, my strong rock; my refuge is with God. 9Trust God at all times, my people! Pour out your hearts to God our refuge! Selah 10III - Mortals are a mere breath, the sons of man but an illusion; On a balance they rise; together they weigh nothing. 11Do not trust in extortion; in plunder put no empty hope. On wealth that increases, do not set your heart. 12One thing God has said; two things I have heard: Strength belongs to God; 13so too, my Lord, does mercy, For you repay each man according to his deeds.
