Psalm 62:1-12
1
Only in God do I find rest; my salvation comes from him. 2
Only God is my rock and my salvation my stronghold!—I won’t be shaken anymore. 3
How long will all of you attack others; how long will you tear them down as if they were leaning walls or broken-down fences? 4
The only desire of this people is to bring others down low; they delight in deception. With their mouths they bless, but inside they are cursing. Selah 5
Oh, I must find rest in God only, because my hope comes from him! 6
Only God is my rock and my salvation my stronghold!—I will not be shaken. 7
My deliverance and glory depend on God. God is my strong rock. My refuge is in God. 8
All you people: Trust in him at all times! Pour out your hearts before him! God is our refuge! Selah 9
Human beings are nothing but a breath. Human beings are nothing but lies. They don’t even register on a scale; taken all together they are lighter than a breath! 10
Don’t trust in violence; don’t set false hopes in robbery. When wealth bears fruit, don’t set your heart on it. 11
God has spoken one thing make it two things that I myself have heard: that strength belongs to God, 12
and faithful love comes from you, my Lord and that you will repay everyone according to their deeds.
