To the chief Musician[H5329], to Jeduthun[H3038], A Psalm[H4210] of David[H1732]. Truly my soul[H5315]waiteth[H1747] upon God[H430]: from him cometh my salvation[H3444].
2
He only is my rock[H6697] and my salvation[H3444]; he is my defence[H4869]; I shall not be greatly[H7227]moved[H4131].
3
How long will ye imagine mischief[H2050] against a man?[H376] ye shall be slain[H7523] all of you: as a bowing[H5186]wall[H7023] shall ye be, and as a tottering[H1760]fence[H1447].
4
They only consult[H3289] to cast him down[H5080] from his excellency[H7613]: they delight[H7521] in lies[H3577]: they bless[H1288] with their mouth[H6310], but they curse[H7043]inwardly[H7130]. Selah[H5542].
5
My soul[H5315], wait[H1826] thou only upon God[H430]; for my expectation[H8615] is from him.
6
He only is my rock[H6697] and my salvation[H3444]: he is my defence[H4869]; I shall not be moved[H4131].
7
In God[H430] is my salvation[H3468] and my glory[H3519]: the rock[H6697] of my strength[H5797], and my refuge[H4268], is in God[H430].
8Trust[H982] in him at all times[H6256]; ye people[H5971], pour out[H8210] your heart[H3824]before[H6440] him: God[H430] is a refuge[H4268] for us. Selah[H5542].
9
Surely men[H120] of low degree are vanity[H1892], and men[H1121] of high degree are a lie[H3577]: to be laid[H5927] in the balance[H3976], they are altogether[H3162] lighter than vanity[H1892].
10Trust[H982] not in oppression[H6233], and become not vain[H1891] in robbery[H1498]: if riches[H2428]increase[H5107], set[H7896] not your heart[H3820] upon them.
11God[H430] hath spoken[H1696]once[H259]; twice[H8147] have I heard[H8085]this[H2098]; that power[H5797] belongeth unto God[H430].
12
Also unto thee, O Lord[H136], belongeth mercy[H2617]: for thou renderest[H7999] to every man[H376] according to his work[H4639].
