Psalm 62

Psalm

For the chief musician; on a stringed instrument. A psalm of David.

 Hear my cry, God;

attend to my prayer.

2 From the ends of the earth will I call to you when my heart is faint;

lead me to the rock that is higher than I.

3 For you have been a refuge for me,

a strong tower from the enemy.

4 Let me live in your tabernacle forever!

Let me take refuge under the shelter of your wings. Selah you, God, have heard my vows,

you have given me the inheritance of those who honor your name.

6 You will prolong the king’s life;

his years will be like many generations.

7 Oh prepare mercy and truth which may preserve him. He will remain before God forever.

8 I will sing praise to your name forever

so that I may perform my vows every day.

Psalm

For the chief musician; after the manner of Jeduthun. A psalm of David.

 I wait in silence for God alone;

my salvation comes from him.

2 He alone is my rock and my salvation;

he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.

3 How long, all of you, will you attack a man,

that you may tip him over

like a leaning wall or a shaky fence?

4 They 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

5 I wait in silence for God alone;

for my hope is set on him.

6 He alone is my rock and my salvation;

he is my high tower; I will not be moved.

7 With God is my salvation and my glory;

the rock of my strength and my refuge are 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 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.

10 Do not trust in oppression or robbery;

and do not hope uselessly in riches,

for they will bear no fruit; do not fix your heart on them.

11 God has spoken once,

twice have I heard this:

power belongs to God.

12 Also to you, Lord, belongs covenant faithfulness,

for you pay back every person for what he has done.
