1God, the one and only - I'll wait as long as he says. Everything I need comes from him, so why not?
2He's solid rock under my feet, breathing room for my soul, An impregnable castle: I'm set for life.
3How long will you gang up on me? How long will you run with the bullies? There's nothing to you, any of you - rotten floorboards, worm-eaten rafters,
4Anthills plotting to bring down mountains, far gone in make-believe. You talk a good line, but every "blessing" breathes a curse.
5God, the one and only - I'll wait as long as he says. Everything I hope for comes from him, so why not?
6He's solid rock under my feet, breathing room for my soul, An impregnable castle: I'm set for life.
7My help and glory are in God
8So trust him absolutely, people; lay your lives on the line for him. God is a safe place to be.
9Man as such is smoke, woman as such, a mirage. Put them together, they're nothing; two times nothing is nothing.
10And a windfall, if it comes - don't make too much of it.
11God said this once and for all; how many times Have I heard it repeated? "Strength comes Straight from God."
12Love to you, Lord God! You pay a fair wage for a good day's work!
