Psalm 62

New Revised Standard NRS

1 For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.

2 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall never be shaken.

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?

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)

5 For God alone my soul waits in silence, for my hope is from him.

6 He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall 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.

10 Put no confidence in extortion, and set no vain hopes on robbery; if riches increase, do not set your heart on them.

11 Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this: that power belongs to God,

12 and steadfast love belongs to you, O Lord. For you repay to all according to their work.

The Message Bible MSG

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

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 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 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?

6 He's solid rock under my feet, breathing room for my soul, An impregnable castle: I'm set for life.

7 My help and glory are in God

8 So trust him absolutely, people; lay your lives on the line for him. God is a safe place to be.

9 Man as such is smoke, woman as such, a mirage. Put them together, they're nothing; two times nothing is nothing.

10 And a windfall, if it comes - don't make too much of it.

11 God said this once and for all; how many times Have I heard it repeated? "Strength comes Straight from God."

12 Love to you, Lord God! You pay a fair wage for a good day's work!
