For the end, a Psalm of David for Idithun.

62:1 Shall not my soul be subjected to God? for of him is my salvation.

62:2 For he is my God, and my saviour; my helper, I shall not be moved very much.

62:3 How long will ye assault a man? ye are all slaughtering as with a bowed wall and a broken hedge.62:4 They only took counsel to set at nought mine honour: I ran in thirst: with their mouth they blessed, but with their heart they cursed. Pause.

62:5 Nevertheless do thou, my soul, be subjected to God; for of him [is] my patient hope.

62:6 For he [is] my God and my Saviour; my helper, I shall not be moved.

62:7 In God [is] my salvation and my glory: [he is] the God of my help, and my hope is in God.

62:8 Hope in him, all ye congregation of the people; pour out your hearts before him, for God is our helper. Pause.

62:9 But the sons of men are vain; the sons of men are false, so as to be deceitful in the balances; they are all alike [formed] out of vanity.

62:10 Trust not in unrighteousness, and lust not after robberies: if wealth should flow in, set not your heart upon it.

62:11 God has spoken once, [and] I have heard these two things, that power is of God;

62:12 and mercy is thine, O Lord; for thou wilt recompense every one according to his works.

To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David.

62:1 Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.

62:2 He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.

62:3 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.

62:4 They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

62:5 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.

62:6 He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.

62:7 In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

62:8 Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.

62:9 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.

62:10 Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.

62:11 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.

62:12 Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
