1 Only for God my soul waits in stillness; from him is my salvation.
2 Only he is my rock and my salvation, my high refuge; I will not be greatly shaken.
3 How long will you all set upon one man to kill him, as if he were a leaning wall, a fence about to fall?
4 They plot only to push him down from his height; they take pleasure in falsehood. With their mouths they bless, but in their hearts they curse. Selah.
5 Only for God wait in stillness, my soul, for from him comes my hope.
6 Only he is my rock and my salvation, my high refuge; I will not be shaken.
7 Upon God rest my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength, my refuge, is in God.
8 Trust in him at every time, you people; pour out your hearts before him; God is our refuge. Selah.
9 Surely the sons of men are a breath, the sons of man are a lie; on the scales they go up; together they are lighter than a breath.
10 Put no trust in oppression, and do not become vain through plunder; when wealth grows, do not set your heart on it.
11 Once God has spoken; twice I have heard it: that strength belongs to God,
12 and that steadfast love belongs to you, O Lord; for you repay each man according to his deeds.
