[1] To the chief music-maker. After Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David. [2]
\62:1\My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my salvation.
[3] \62:2\He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will
not be greatly moved. [4] \62:3\How long will you go on designing evil
against a man? running against him as against a broken wall, which is on
the point of falling? [5] \62:4\Their only thought is to put him down from
his place of honour; their delight is in deceit: blessing is in their
mouths but cursing in their hearts. (Selah.) [6] \62:5\My soul, put all
your faith in God; for from him comes my hope. [7] \62:6\He only is my Rock
and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved. [8]
\62:7\In God is my salvation, and my glory; the Rock of my strength, and my
safe place. [9] \62:8\Have faith in him at all times, you people; let your
hearts go flowing out before him: God is our safe place. (Selah.) [10]
\62:9\Truly men of low birth are nothing, and men of high position are not
what they seem; if they are put in the scales together they are less than a
breath. [11] \62:10\Have no faith in the rewards of evil-doing, or in
profits wrongly made: if your wealth is increased, do not put your hopes on
it. [12] \62:11\Once has God said, twice has it come to my ears, that power
is God's: [13] \62:12\And mercy, O Lord, is yours, for you give to every
man the reward of his work.
