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 not be greatly shaken.
3 How long will all of you attack a manto batter him,like a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
4 They only plan to thrust him down from his high position.They take pleasure in falsehood. They bless with their mouths,but inwardly they curse. Selah
5 For God alone, O my soul, wait 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 salvation and my glory;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 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 trust in extortion; set no vain hopes on robbery; if riches increase, set not your heart on them.
11 Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this:that power belongs to God,
12 and that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love.For you will render to a manaccording to his work.
