To the chief Musician,
to Jeduthun,
A Psalm
of David.
Truly my soul
waiteth
upon God:
from him cometh my salvation.
He only is my rock
and my salvation;
he is my defence;
I shall not be greatly
moved.
How long will ye imagine mischief
against a man?
ye shall be slain
all of you: as a bowing
wall
shall ye be, and as a tottering
fence.
They only consult
to cast him down
from his excellency:
they delight
in lies:
they bless
with their mouth,
but they curse
inwardly.
Selah.
My soul,
wait
thou only upon God;
for my expectation
is from him.
He only is my rock
and my salvation:
he is my defence;
I shall not be moved.
In God
is my salvation
and my glory:
the rock
of my strength,
and my refuge,
is in God.
Trust
in him at all times;
ye people,
pour out
your heart
before
him: God
is a refuge
for us. Selah.
Surely men
of low degree are vanity,
and men
of high degree are a lie:
to be laid
in the balance,
they are altogether
lighter than vanity.
Trust
not in oppression,
and become not vain
in robbery:
if riches
increase,
set
not your heart
upon them.
God
hath spoken
once;
twice
have I heard
this;
that power
belongeth unto God.
Also unto thee, O Lord,
belongeth mercy:
for thou renderest
to every man
according to his work.
