Psalm 62:1-12 NAS
My soul waits
in silence for God only; from Him is my salvation. He only is my
rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.
How
long will you assail a man, that you may murder him, all of you,
like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence: 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. My
soul, wait in silence for God only, for my hope is from Him. He only
is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
On God my salvation and my glory rest; the rock of my strength, my refuge
is in God. Trust in Him at all times, O people pour out your heart
before Him; God is a refuge for us. 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. Do not trust in
oppression and do not vainly hope in robbery; if riches increase, do not
set your heart upon them. Once
God has spoken; twice I have heard this; that power belongs to God; and loving kindness
is Yours, O Lord, for You recompense a man according to his work.
