PSALM 62
Common Meter: 8,6,8,6
To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun,
A Psalm of David.
1My soul with expectation
depends on God indeed;
My strength and my salvation doth
from him alone proceed.
2He only my salvation is,
and my strong rock is he:
He only is my sure defence;
much mov'd I shall not be.
3How long will ye against a man
plot mischief? ye shall all
Be slain; ye as a tott'ring fence shall be,
and bowing wall.
4They only plot to cast him down
from his excellency:
They joy in lies; with mouth they bless,
but they curse inwardly.
5My soul, wait thou with patience
upon thy God alone;
On him dependeth all my hope
and expectation.
6He only my salvation is,
and my strong rock is he;
He only is my sure defence:
I shall not moved be.
7In God my glory placed is,
and my salvation sure;
In God the rock is of my strength,
my refuge most secure.
8Ye people, place your confidence
in him continually;
Before him pour ye out your heart:
God is our refuge high.
9Surely mean men are vanity,
and great men are a lie;
In balance laid, they wholly are
more light than vanity.
10Trust ye not in oppression,
in robb'ry be not vain;
On wealth set not your hearts, when as
increased is your gain.
11God hath it spoken once to me,
yea, this I heard again,
That power to Almighty God
alone doth appertain.
12Yea, mercy also unto thee
belongs, O Lord, alone:
For thou according to his work
rewardest ev'ry one.

62
For the Music Director. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
1My soul waits in silence on God alone;
from Him comes my salvation.
2#Ps 63:1; 84:2 He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my refuge; I will not be greatly shaken.
3#Ps 79:10; 80:5 How long will you attack a man,
to batter him, all of you,
as you would a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
4#Isa 30:29; Ps 62:8 They only conspire to cast him down
from his high position;
they delight in lies,
they bless with their mouth,
but they curse inwardly. Selah
5#Ps 42:11; 43:5 My soul, wait silently for God,
for my hope is from Him.
6#2Sa 17:22; Dt 3:8–9 He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my refuge; I will not be moved.
7#Ps 88:7; Jnh 2:3 In God is my salvation and my glory;
the rock of my strength, and my shelter, is in God.
8#Job 35:10; Ps 63:6 Trust in Him at all times;
you people, pour out your heart before Him;
God is a shelter for us. Selah
9#Ps 38:6; 18:2 Surely people of low degree are a breath,
and men of high degree are a lie;
if they are placed in the balance,
they are altogether lighter than vapor.
10#Ps 42:3; Joel 2:17 Do not trust in oppression,
and do not become vain in robbery;
if riches increase,
do not set your heart on them.
11#Ps 42:5; 43:5 God has spoken once,
twice have I heard this:
that power belongs to God.
12Also to You, O Lord, belongs mercy;
for You render to each one
according to his work.
