1 For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.
1 Only in God do I find rest; my salvation comes from him.

2 Only God is my rock and my salvation— my stronghold!—I won't be shaken anymore.
3 How long will you assail a person, will you batter your victim, all of you, as you would a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
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?
4 Their only plan is to bring down a person of prominence. They take pleasure in falsehood; they bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse. (Selah)
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
5 For God alone my soul waits in silence, for my hope is from him.
5 Oh, I must find rest in God only, because my hope comes from him!
6 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
6 Only God is my rock and my salvation— my stronghold!—I will not be shaken.
7 On God rests my deliverance and my honor; my mighty rock, my refuge is in God.

8 Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. (Selah)

9 Those of low estate are but a breath, those of high estate are a delusion; in the balances they go up; they are together lighter than a breath.
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!
10 Put no confidence in extortion, and set no vain hopes on robbery; if riches increase, do not set your heart on them.
10 Don't trust in violence; don't set false hopes in robbery. When wealth bears fruit, don't set your heart on it.
11 Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this: that power belongs to God,
11 God has spoken one thing— make it two things— that I myself have heard: that strength belongs to God,
12 and steadfast love belongs to you, O Lord. For you repay to all according to their work.
12 and faithful love comes from you, my Lord— and that you will repay everyone according to their deeds.
