1
To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation.
2
He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly moved.
3
How long will you set upon a man to shatter him, all of you, like a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
4
They only plan to thrust him down from his eminence. 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 only 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 God.
8
Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. [Selah]
9
Men of low estate are but a breath, men of high estate are a delusion; in the balances they go up; they are together lighter than a breath.
