Bible

1 For the leader. Set in the style of Y'dutun. A psalm of David: My soul waits in silence for God alone; my salvation comes from him. 2 He alone is my rock and salvation, my stronghold; I won't be greatly moved. 3 How long will you assail a person in order to murder him, all of you, as if he were a sagging wall or a shaky fence? 4 They only want to shake him from his height, they take delight in lying with their mouths they bless, but inwardly they curse. (Selah) 5 My soul, wait in silence for God alone, because my hope comes from him. 6 He alone is my rock and salvation, my stronghold; I won't be moved. 7 My safety and honor rest on God. My strong rock and refuge are in God. 8 Trust in him, people, at all times; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. (Selah) 9 Ordinary folks are merely a breath and important people a sham; if you lay them on a balance-scale, they go up both together are lighter than nothing. 10 Don't put your trust in extortion, don't put false hopes in robbery; even if wealth increases, don't set your heart on it. 11 God has spoken once, I have heard it twice: strength belongs to God. 12 Also to you, Adonai, belongs grace; for you reward all as their deeds deserve.
