Psalm 62 New American Standard Bible (NASB)

God Alone a Refuge from Treachery and Oppression.

For the music director; [a]according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

62 (A)My soul waits in silence for God alone;
From Him (B)comes my salvation.
He alone is my (C)rock and my salvation,
My (D)stronghold; I will not be greatly shaken.

How long will you attack a man,
That you may murder him, all of you,
Like a (E)leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
They have planned only to thrust him down from his high position;
They (F)delight in falsehood;
They (G)bless with [b]their mouth,
But inwardly they curse. Selah

My soul, (H)wait in silence for God alone,
For my hope is from Him.
He alone is (I)my rock and my salvation,
My refuge; I will not be shaken.
My (J)salvation and my glory rest on God;
The rock of my strength, my (K)refuge is in God.
(L)Trust in Him at all times, you people;
(M)Pour out your hearts before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah

People of (N)low standing are only (O)breath, and people of rank are a (P)lie;
In the (Q)balances they go up.
Together they are lighter than breath.
10 (R)Do not trust in oppression,
And do not vainly rely on (S)robbery;
If wealth increases, (T)do not set your heart on it.

11 God has (U)spoken [c]once;
[d]Twice I have heard this:
That (V)power belongs to God;
12 And faithfulness (W)is Yours, Lord,
For You (X)reward a person according to his work.
