Psalms 61

The Book of Psalms

62

  For the Chief Musician; after the manner of Jeduthan. A Psalm of David.

1

My soul waiteth in silence for YAHUVEH only: From him cometh my salvation.

2

He only is my rock and my salvation: He is my high tower; I shall not be greatly moved.

3

How long will ye set upon a man, That ye may slay him, all of you, Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

4

They only consult to thrust him down from his dignity; They delight in lies; They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah

5

My soul, wait thou in silence for YAHUVEH only; For my expectation is from him.

6

He only is my rock and my salvation: He is my high tower; I shall not be moved.

7

With YAHUVEH is my salvation and my glory: The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in YAHUVEH.

8

Trust in him at all times, ye people; Pour out your heart before him: YAHUVEH is a refuge for us. Selah

9

Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: In the balances they will go up; They are together lighter than vanity.

10

Trust not in oppression, And become not vain in robbery: If riches increase, set not your heart thereon.

11

YAHUVEH hath spoken once, Twice have I heard this, That power belongeth unto YAHUVEH.

12

Also unto thee, O Master, belongeth lovingkindness; For thou renderest to every man according to his work.
