1 Only in God do I find rest; my salvation comes from him.
1 God, the one and only - I'll wait as long as he says. Everything I need comes from him, so why not?
2 Only God is my rock and my salvation— my stronghold!—I won't be shaken anymore.
2 He's solid rock under my feet, breathing room for my soul, An impregnable castle: I'm set for life.
3 How long will all of you attack others; how long will you tear them down as if they were leaning walls or broken-down fences?
3 How long will you gang up on me? How long will you run with the bullies? There's nothing to you, any of you - rotten floorboards, worm-eaten rafters,
4 The only desire of this people is to bring others down low; they delight in deception. With their mouths they bless, but inside they are cursing. Selah
4 Anthills plotting to bring down mountains, far gone in make-believe. You talk a good line, but every "blessing" breathes a curse.

5 God, the one and only - I'll wait as long as he says. Everything I hope for comes from him, so why not?

8 All you people: Trust in him at all times! Pour out your hearts before him! God is our refuge! Selah
8 So trust him absolutely, people; lay your lives on the line for him. God is a safe place to be.
9 Human beings are nothing but a breath. Human beings are nothing but lies. They don't even register on a scale; taken all together they are lighter than a breath!
9 Man as such is smoke, woman as such, a mirage. Put them together, they're nothing; two times nothing is nothing.
10 Don't trust in violence; don't set false hopes in robbery. When wealth bears fruit, don't set your heart on it.
10 And a windfall, if it comes - don't make too much of it.
11 God has spoken one thing— make it two things— that I myself have heard: that strength belongs to God,
11 God said this once and for all; how many times Have I heard it repeated? "Strength comes Straight from God."
12 and faithful love comes from you, my Lord— and that you will repay everyone according to their deeds.
12 Love to you, Lord God! You pay a fair wage for a good day's work!
