Trust in God Alone

1 For the choir director: according to Jeduthun.(A) A Davidic psalm.
I am at rest in God alone;
my salvation comes from Him.(B)
2
He alone is my rock and my salvation,(C)
my stronghold; I will never be shaken.(D)
3
How long will you threaten a man?
Will all of you attack(a)
as if he were a leaning wall
or a tottering stone fence?(E)
4
They only plan to bring him down
from his high position.
They take pleasure in lying;
they bless with their mouths,
but they curse inwardly.(F)Selah
5
Rest in God alone, my soul,
for my hope comes from Him.(G)
6
He alone is my rock and my salvation,(H)
my stronghold; I will not be shaken.(I)
7
My salvation and glory depend on God, my strong rock.
My refuge is in God.(J)
8
Trust in Him at all times, you people;
pour out your hearts before Him.
God is our refuge.(K)Selah
9
Men are only a vapor;
exalted men, an illusion.
Weighed in the scales, they go up;
together they are less than a vapor.(L)
10
Place no trust in oppression,
or false hope in robbery.
If wealth increases,
pay no attention to it.(b)(M)
11
God has spoken once;
I have heard this twice:
strength belongs to God,(N)
12
and faithful love belongs to You, Lord.
For You repay each according to his works.(O)
