          DASV: Psalm 62    

For the music director, for Jeduthun, a psalm of David

1 My soul waits in silence for God alone;
     from him comes my salvation.
2 He alone is my rock and my salvation;
     he is my fortress;
      I will not be shaken.

3 How long will you attack a person?
     All of you will kill him,
           like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence.
4 They plan to knock down a person of prominence;
          they delight in lies.
     They bless with their mouth,
          but inwardly they curse. Selah

5 My soul waits in silence for God alone,
     for my hope is from him.
6 He alone is my rock and my salvation;
     he is my fortress;
      I will not be shaken.
7 My salvation and my honor rely upon God;
     my strong rock and my refuge is in God.
8 Trust in him at all times, you people;
     pour out your heart before him;
           God is a refuge for us. Selah

9 Surely humans are but a breath,
     human beings are a delusion;
      when weighed on the balances they tip up;
     together they are lighter than breath.
10 Do not trust in oppression,
     or put confidence in robbery;
           if your wealth increases,
     do not set your heart on it.
11 Once God has spoken,
     twice I have heard this,
           that power belongs to God.
12 Also to you, O Lord, belongs loyal love;
     you repay each person according to his work.
