CHAPTER 62
Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him
cometh
my salvation.
2
He only
is
my rock and my salvation;
he is
my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.
3
How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing
wall
shall ye be, and as
a tottering fence.
4
They only consult to cast
him
down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless
with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.
5
My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation
is
from him.
6
He only
is
my rock and my salvation:
he is
my defence; 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;
ye
people, pour out your heart before him: God
is
a refuge for us.
Selah.
9
Surely men of low degree
are
vanity,
and
men of high degree
are
a lie: to be laid in the
balance, they
are
altogether
lighter
than vanity.
10
Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your
heart
upon them.
11
God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power
belongeth
unto God.
12
Also unto thee, O Lord,
belongeth
mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to
his work.
CHAPTER 63
O God, thou
art
my God; early will I seek thee: my soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh longeth for
thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
2
To see thy power and thy glory, so
as
I have seen thee in the sanctuary.
3
Because thy lovingkindness
is
better than life, my lips shall praise thee.
4
Thus will I bless thee while I live: I will lift up my hands in thy name.
5
My soul shall be satisfied as
with
marrow and fatness; and my mouth shall praise
thee
with
joyful lips:
6
When I remember thee upon my bed,
and
meditate on thee in the
night
watches.
7
Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.
8
My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.
9
But those
that
seek my soul, to destroy
it,
shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10
They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.
11
But the king shall rejoice in God; every one that sweareth by him shall glory: but the
mouth of them that speak lies shall be stopped.
