Like One Who Watches For The Morning: Psalm 62

Psalm 62New Revised Standard Version Updated EditionPsalm 62Song of Trust in God AloneTo the leader: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. 1 For God alone my soul waits in silence;    from him comes my salvation.2 He alone is my rock and my salvation,    my fortress; I shall never be shaken. 3 How long will you assail a person,    will you batter your victim, all of you,    as you would a leaning wall, a tottering fence?4 Their only plan is to bring down a person of prominence.    They take pleasure in falsehood;they bless with their mouths,    but inwardly they curse. Selah 5 For God alone my soul waits in silence,    for my hope is from him.6 He alone is my rock and my salvation,    my fortress; I shall not be shaken.7 On God rests my deliverance and my honor;    my mighty rock, my refuge is in God. 8 Trust in him at all times, O people;    pour out your heart before him;    God is a refuge for us. Selah 9 Those of low estate are but a breath;    those of high estate are a delusion;in the balances they go up;    they are together lighter than a breath.10 Put no confidence in extortion,    and set no vain hopes on robbery;    if riches increase, do not set your heart on them. 11 Once God has spoken;    twice have I heard this:that power belongs to God,12     and steadfast love belongs to you, O Lord.For you repay to all    according to their work.
