Psalm 62 · Warten auf Gott

1For the leader; on Jeduthun. A psalm of David.

2Truly my soul waits quietly for God,from whom my deliverance comes.

3Truly [God] is my rock and deliverance,my haven; I shall never be shaken.

4How long will all of you attack someone,to crush them, as though they werea leaning wall, a tottering fence?

5You lay plans to topple them from their status;you delight in falsehood;you bless with your mouths,while inwardly you curse. Selah.

6Truly, wait quietly for God, O my soul,from whom comes my hope.

7[God] is my rock and deliverance,my haven; I shall not be shaken.

8I rely on God, my deliverance and glory,my rock of strength;in God is my refuge.

9Trust in [God] at all times, O people;pour out your hearts before the Holy One;God is our refuge. Selah.

10Humans are mere breath;mortals, an illusion—placed on a scale all together,they weigh even less than a breath.

11Do not trust in violence,or put false hopes in robbery;if force bears fruit pay it no mind.

12One thing God has spoken;two things have I heard:that might belongs to God,

13and faithfulness is Yours, O my Sovereign,to reward everyone according to their deeds.
