1 My soul waiteth in silence for God only: From himcomethmy salvation.

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

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

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

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

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

7 With 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: In the balances they will go up; They are together lighter than vanity.

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

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

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