1 To the Overseer, for Jeduthun. -- A Psalm of David. Only -- toward God `is' my soul silent, From Him `is' my salvation.

2 Only -- He `is' my rock, and my salvation, My tower, I am not much moved.

3 Till when do ye devise mischief against a man? Ye are destroyed all of you, As a wall inclined, a hedge that is cast down.

4 Only -- from his excellency They have consulted to drive away, They enjoy a lie, with their mouth they bless, And with their heart revile. Selah.

5 Only -- for God, be silent, O my soul, For from Him `is' my hope.

6 Only -- He `is' my rock and my salvation, My tower, I am not moved.

7 On God `is' my salvation, and my honour, The rock of my strength, my refuge `is' in God.

8 Trust in Him at all times, O people, Pour forth before Him your heart, God `is' a refuge for us. Selah.

9 Only -- vanity `are' the low, a lie the high. In balances to go up they than vanity `are' lighter.

10 Trust not in oppression, And in robbery become not vain, Wealth -- when it increaseth -- set not the heart.

11 Once hath God spoken, twice I heard this, That `strength `is' with God.'

12 And with Thee, O Lord, `is' kindness, For Thou dost recompense to each, According to his work!
