| 1: Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my
salvation. |
| |
| 2: He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall
not be greatly moved. |
| |
| 3:
How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be
slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering
fence. |
| |
| 4: They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they
delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly.
Selah. |
| |
| 5: My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from
him. |
| |
| 6: He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall
not be moved. |
| |
| 7: In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength,
and my refuge, is in God. |
| |
| 8: Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart
before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah. |
| |
| 9: Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree
are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than
vanity. |
| |
| 10: Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if
riches increase, set not your heart upon them. |
| |
| 11: God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power
belongeth unto God. |
| |
| 12: Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest
to every man according to his work. |
