1For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by David.
2My soul rests in God alone. My salvation is from him.
3He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress. I will never be greatly shaken.
4How long will you assault a man? Would all of you throw him down, like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?
5They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.
6My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.
7He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress. I will not be shaken.
8My salvation and my honor is with God. The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.
9Trust in him at all times, you people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. Selah.
10Surely men of low degree are just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.
11Don't trust in oppression. Don't become vain in robbery. If riches increase, don't set your heart on them.
12God has spoken once; twice I have heard this, that power belongs to God.
13Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work.
