Psalms 62
Ready to read
1
I wait patiently for God to save me; I depend on him alone.
2
He alone protects and saves me; he is my defender, and I shall never be defeated.
3
How much longer will all of you attack someone who is no stronger than a broken-down fence?
4
You only want to bring him down from his place of honor; you take pleasure in lies. You speak words of blessing, but in your heart you curse him.
5
I depend on God alone; I put my hope in him.
6
He alone protects and saves me; he is my defender, and I shall never be defeated.
7
My salvation and honor depend on God; he is my strong protector; he is my shelter.
8
Trust in God at all times, my people. Tell him all your troubles, for he is our refuge.
9
Human beings are all like a puff of breath; great and small alike are worthless. Put them on the scales, and they weigh nothing; they are lighter than a mere breath.
10
Don't put your trust in violence; don't hope to gain anything by robbery; even if your riches increase, don't depend on them.
11
More than once I have heard God say that power belongs to him
12
and that his love is constant. You yourself, O Lord, reward everyone according to their deeds.
