Psalms 62

MSG

NIV

1 God, the one and only - I'll wait as long as he says. Everything I need comes from him, so why not?
1 Truly my soul finds rest in God; my salvation comes from him.
2 He's solid rock under my feet, breathing room for my soul, An impregnable castle: I'm set for life.
2 Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.
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,
3 How long will you assault me? Would all of you throw me down— this leaning wall, this tottering fence?
4 Anthills plotting to bring down mountains, far gone in make-believe. You talk a good line, but every "blessing" breathes a curse.
4 Surely they intend to topple me from my lofty place; they take delight in lies. With their mouths they bless, but in their hearts they 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?
5 Yes, my soul, find rest in God; my hope comes from him.
6 He's solid rock under my feet, breathing room for my soul, An impregnable castle: I'm set for life.
6 Truly he is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken.
7 My help and glory are in God
7 My salvation and my honor depend on God ; he is my mighty rock, my refuge.
8 So trust him absolutely, people; lay your lives on the line for him. God is a safe place to be.
8 Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge.
9 Man as such is smoke, woman as such, a mirage. Put them together, they're nothing; two times nothing is nothing.
9 Surely the lowborn are but a breath, the highborn are but a lie. If weighed on a balance, they are nothing; together they are only a breath.
10 And a windfall, if it comes - don't make too much of it.
10 Do not trust in extortion or put vain hope in stolen goods; though your riches increase, do not set your heart on them.
11 God said this once and for all; how many times Have I heard it repeated? "Strength comes Straight from God."
11 One thing God has spoken, two things I have heard: “Power belongs to you, God,
12 Love to you, Lord God! You pay a fair wage for a good day's work!
12 and with you, Lord, is unfailing love”; and, “You reward everyone according to what they have done.”
