1898 Young's Literal Translation (YLT)

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 Overseer, for Jeduthun.—A Psalm of David. Only—toward God [is] my soul silent, From Him [is] my salvation.

 62:2 Only—He [is] my rock, and my salvation, My tower, I am not much moved.

 62:3 Till when do ye devise mischief against a man? Ye are destroyed all of you, As a wall inclined, a hedge that is cast down.

 62:4 Only—from his excellency They have consulted to drive away, They enjoy a lie, with their mouth they bless, And with their heart revile. Selah.

 62:5 Only—for God, be silent, O my soul, For from Him [is] my hope.

 62:6 Only—He [is] my rock and my salvation, My tower, I am not moved.

 62:7 On God [is] my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my strength, my refuge [is] in God.

 62:8 Trust in Him at all times, O people, Pour forth before Him your heart, God [is] a refuge for us. Selah.

 62:9 Only—vanity [are] the low, a lie the high. In balances to go up they than vanity [are] lighter.

 62:10 Trust not in oppression, And in robbery become not vain, Wealth—when it increaseth—set not the heart.

 62:11 Once hath God spoken, twice I heard this, That 'strength [is] with God.'

 62:12 And with Thee, O Lord, [is] kindness, For Thou dost recompense to each, According to his work!
