Psalms 62:1-9

¹For the chief musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A psalm of David. I wait in silence for God alone; my salvation comes from him.

²He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.

³How long, all of you, will you attack a man, that you may tip him over like a leaning wall or a shaky fence?

⁴They consult with him only to bring him down from his honorable position; they love to tell lies; they bless him with their mouths, but in their hearts they curse him. Selah

⁵I wait in silence for God alone; for my hope is set on him.

⁶He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be moved.

⁷With God is my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength and my refuge are in God.

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

⁹Surely men of low standing are vanity, and men of high standing are a lie; they will weigh lightly in the scales; weighed together, they are lighter than nothing.
