Psalm 62:1-6

Listen to Psalm 62:1-6
1 Ein Psalm Davids fĂĽr Jeduthun, vorzusingen. Meine Seele sei stille zu Gott, der mir hilft.
2 Denn er ist mein Hort, meine Hilfe, meine Schutz, daĂź mich kein Fall stĂĽrzen wird, wie groĂź er ist.
3 Wie lange stellt ihr alle einem nach, daß ihr ihn erwürget-als eine hängende Wand und zerrissene Mauer?
4 Sie denken nur, wie sie ihn dämpfen, fleißigen sich der Lüge; geben gute Worte, aber im Herzen fluchen sie. (Sela.)
5 Aber sei nur stille zu Gott, meine Seele; denn er ist meine Hoffnung.
6 Er ist mein Hort, meine Hilfe und mein Schutz, daĂź ich nicht fallen werde.

Psalm 62:1-6 Meaning and Commentary

To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, [A Psalm] of David. Concerning "Jeduthun," See Gill on "Ps 39:1," title. Kimchi thinks this psalm was written concerning the captivity; and Jarchi twtdh le, concerning the decrees and judgments made against Israel by their enemies; and so some of their ancient expositions {d}; but it seems to have been composed by David when in distress, either through Saul and his courtiers, or by reason of the conspiracy of Absalom. Theodoret takes it to be a prophecy of the persecution of Antiochus in the times of the Maccabees.

{d} Vid. Yalkut Simeoni in loc.
