Psalm 62:1-Psalm 63:1 - Trust In God Alone

1 {To the Chanter, for by Jeduthun, a Psalm of David} My soul truly waiteth still upon God; for of him cometh my salvation. 2 He only is my strength, my salvation, my defense, so that I shall not greatly fall.

3 How long will ye imagine mischief against every man? Ye shall be slain, all of the sort of you; yea, as a tottering wall shall ye be, and like a broken hedge. 4 Their device is only how to put him out, whom God will exalt; their delight is in lies. They give good words with their mouth, but curse with their heart. Selah.

5 Nevertheless, my soul abideth only upon God, for he is my God. 6 He only is my strength, my salvation, my defense: so that I shall not fall. 7 In God is my health and my glory, the rock of my might; and in God is my trust. 8 O put your trust in him always, ye people; pour out your hearts before him, for God is our hope. Selah.

9 As for men they are but vanity; the children of men are deceitful. Upon the weights they are altogether lighter than vanity itself. 10 O trust not in wrong or robbery; give not yourselves unto vanity. If riches increase, set not your heart upon them.

11 God spoke once, and twice I have also heard the same, that power belongeth unto God, 12 and that thou, LORD, art merciful; for thou rewardest every man according to his work.

1 {A Psalm of David, when he was in the wilderness of Judah} O God, thou art my God; early will I seek thee. My soul thirsteth for thee, my flesh also longeth after thee, in a barren and dry land where no water is.
