1 M y soul waiteth in silence for God only: From him cometh my salvation.

2 H e only is my rock and my salvation: He is my high tower; I shall not be greatly moved.

3 H ow long will ye set upon a man, That ye may slay him, all of you, Like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

4 T hey only consult to thrust him down from his dignity; They delight in lies; They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah

5 M y soul, wait thou in silence for God only; For my expectation is from him.

6 H e only is my rock and my salvation: He is my high tower; I shall not be moved.

7 W ith God is my salvation and my glory: The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

8 T rust in him at all times, ye people; Pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah

9 S urely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: In the balances they will go up; They are together lighter than vanity.

10 T rust not in oppression, And become not vain in robbery: If riches increase, set not your heart thereon.

11 G od hath spoken once, Twice have I heard this, That power belongeth unto God.

12 A lso unto thee, O Lord, belongeth lovingkindness; For thou renderest to every man according to his work.
