Holman Christian Standard Bible CSB
1 To the Overseer, for Jeduthun. -- A Psalm of David. Only -- toward God [is] my soul silent, From Him [is] my salvation.
1
I am at rest in God alone; my salvation comes from Him.
2 Only -- He [is] my rock, and my salvation, My tower, I am not much moved.
2
He alone is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I will never be shaken.
3 Till when do ye devise mischief against a man? Ye are destroyed all of you, As a wall inclined, a hedge that is cast down.
3
How long will you threaten a man? Will all of you attack as if he were a leaning wall or a tottering stone fence?
4 Only -- from his excellency They have consulted to drive away, They enjoy a lie, with their mouth they bless, And with their heart revile. Selah.
4
They only plan to bring him down from his high position. They take pleasure in lying; they bless with their mouths, but they curse inwardly. Selah
5 Only -- for God, be silent, O my soul, For from Him [is] my hope.
5
Rest in God alone, my soul, for my hope comes from Him.
6 Only -- He [is] my rock and my salvation, My tower, I am not moved.
6
He alone is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I will not be shaken.
7 On God [is] my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my strength, my refuge [is] in God.
7
My salvation and glory depend on God; my strong rock, my refuge, is in God.
8 Trust in Him at all times, O people, Pour forth before Him your heart, God [is] a refuge for us. Selah.
8
Trust in Him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts before Him. God is our refuge. Selah
9 Only -- vanity [are] the low, a lie the high. In balances to go up they than vanity [are] lighter.
9
Men are only a vapor; exalted men, an illusion. On a balance scale, they go up; together they [weigh] less than a vapor.
10 Trust not in oppression, And in robbery become not vain, Wealth -- when it increaseth -- set not the heart.
10
Place no trust in oppression, or false hope in robbery. If wealth increases, pay no attention to it.
11 Once hath God spoken, twice I heard this, That `strength [is] with God.'
11
God has spoken once; I have heard this twice: strength belongs to God,
12 And with Thee, O Lord, [is] kindness, For Thou dost recompense to each, According to his work!
12
and faithful love belongs to You, Lord. For You repay each according to his works.
