Psalm 61 💬 📚 📜 📕 ↷

1 UNTO the end, for Idithun a Psalm of David.

2 Shall not my soul be subject to God? For of him is my salvation.

3 For he is my God, and my saviour: my receiver, I shall be moved no more.

4 How long set you violently upon a man: you all do kill, as it were upon a wall that is leaning, and a wall shaken.

5 But yet they thought to repel my price. I ran in thirst: they blessed with their mouth, and cursed with their heart.

6 But yet my soul be thou subject to God: because my patience is from him.

7 Because he is my God, and my saviour: my helper I shall not remove.

8 In God is my salvation, and my glory: the God of my help, and my hope is in God.

9 Hope in him all ye the congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him: God is our helper for ever.

10 But yet the children of men are vain, the children of men are liars in balances: that they may deceive by vanity together.

11 Hope not in iniquity, and covet not robberies: if riches abound set not your heart upon them.

12 Once hath God spoken, these two things have I heard:

13 That power is God's, and mercy, o Lord, is to thee: because thou wilt render to every one according to his works.
