¹My soul rests in God alone.

My salvation is from him .

²He alone is my rock, my salvation , and my fortress.

I will never be greatly shaken.

³How long will you assault a man?

Would all of you throw him down ,

like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

⁴They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place .

They delight in lies.

They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

⁵My soul, wait in silence for God alone,

for my expectation is from him .

⁶He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress.

I will not be shaken.

⁷My salvation and my honour is with God .

The rock of my strength , and my refuge , is in God .

⁸Trust in him at all times, you people.

Pour out your heart before him .

God is a refuge for us . Selah.

⁹Surely men of low degree are just a breath,

and men of high degree are a lie.

In the balances they will go up .

They are together lighter than a breath.

¹⁰Don’t trust in oppression.

Don’t become vain in robbery.

If riches increase,

don’t set your heart on them .

¹¹God has spoken once;

twice I have heard this ,

that power belongs to God.

¹²Also to you , Lord, belongs loving kindness,

for you reward every man according to his work.
