1890 Darby's Translation of the Holy Scriptures (DBY)

Psalms 62

1 David, professing his confidence in God, discourageth his enemies. 5 In the same confidence he encourageth the godly. 9 No trust is to be put in worldly things. 11 Power and mercy belong to God.

 62:1 ¶ [[To the chief Musician. On Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.]] Upon God alone doth my soul rest peacefully; from him is my salvation.

 62:2 He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be greatly moved.

 62:3 How long will ye assail a man; will ye [seek], all of you, to break him down as a bowing wall or a tottering fence?

 62:4 They only consult to thrust [him] down from his excellency; they delight in lies; they bless with their mouth, but in their inward part they curse. Selah.

 62:5 Upon God alone, O my soul, rest peacefully; for my expectation is from him.

 62:6 He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be moved.

 62:7 With God is my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength, my refuge is in God.

 62:8 Confide in him at all times, ye people; pour out your heart before him: God is our refuge. Selah.

 62:9 Men of low degree are only vanity; men of high degree, a lie: laid in the balance, they go up together [lighter] than vanity.

 62:10 Put not confidence in oppression, and become not vain in robbery; if wealth increase, set not your heart upon it.

 62:11 Once hath God spoken, twice have I heard this, that strength [belongeth] unto God.

 62:12 And unto thee, O Lord, [belongeth] loving-kindness; for *thou* renderest to every man according to his work.
