1 Truly my soul silently waits for God;From Him comes my salvation.
2 He only is my rock and my salvation;He is my defense;I shall not be greatly moved.
3 How long will you attack a man?You shall be slain, all of you,Like a leaning wall and a tottering fence.
4 They only consult to cast him down from his high position;They delight in lies;They bless with their mouth,But they curse inwardly.Selah
5 My soul, wait silently for God alone,For my expectation is from Him.
6 He only is my rock and my salvation;He is my defense;I shall not be moved.
7 In God is my salvation and my glory;The rock of my strength,And my refuge, is in God.
8 Trust in Him at all times, you people;Pour out your heart before Him;God is a refuge for us.Selah
9 Surely men of low degree are a vapor,Men of high degree are a lie;If they are weighed on the scales,They are altogether lighter than vapor.
10 Do not trust in oppression,Nor vainly hope in robbery;If riches increase,Do not set your heart on them.
11 God has spoken once,Twice I have heard this:That power belongs to God.
12 Also to You, O Lord, belongs mercy;For You render to each one according to his work.
