Chapter 62
1לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַֽל־יְדוּתוּן מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽדFor the leader; on Jeduthun. A psalm of David.
2אַךְ אֶל־אֱלֹהִים דּֽוּמִיָּה נַפְשִׁי מִמֶּנּוּ יְשׁוּעָתִֽיTruly my soul waits quietly for God, from whom my deliverance comes.
3אַךְ־הוּא צוּרִי וִישׁוּעָתִי מִשְׂגַּבִּי לֹא־אֶמּוֹט רַבָּֽהTruly [God] is my rock and deliverance, my haven; I shall never be shaken.
4עַד־אָנָה תְּהוֹתְתוּ עַל־אִישׁ תְּרָצְּחוּ כֻלְּכֶם כְּקִיר נָטוּי גָּדֵר הַדְּחוּיָֽהHow long will all of you attack someone, to crush them, as though they were a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
5אַךְ מִשְּׂאֵתוֹ יָעֲצוּ לְהַדִּיחַ יִרְצוּ כָזָב בְּפִיו יְבָרֵכוּ וּבְקִרְבָּם יְקַֽלְלוּ־סֶֽלָהYou lay plans to topple them from their status; you delight in falsehood; you bless with your mouths, while inwardly you curse. Selah.
6אַךְ לֵאלֹהִים דּוֹמִּי נַפְשִׁי כִּֽי־מִמֶּנּוּ תִּקְוָתִֽיTruly, wait quietly for God, O my soul, from whom comes my hope.
7אַךְ־הוּא צוּרִי וִישׁוּעָתִי מִשְׂגַּבִּי לֹא אֶמּֽוֹט[God] is my rock and deliverance, my haven; I shall not be shaken.
8עַל־אֱלֹהִים יִשְׁעִי וּכְבוֹדִי צוּר־עֻזִּי מַחְסִי בֵּאלֹהִֽיםI rely on God, my deliverance and glory, my rock of strength; in God is my refuge.
9בִּטְחוּ־בוֹ בְכׇל־עֵת עָם שִׁפְכֽוּ־לְפָנָיו לְבַבְכֶם אֱלֹהִים מַחֲסֶה־לָּנוּ סֶֽלָהTrust in [God] at all times, O people; pour out your hearts before the Holy One; God is our refuge. Selah.
10אַךְ הֶבֶל בְּנֵֽי־אָדָם כָּזָב בְּנֵי־אִישׁ בְּמֹאזְנַיִם לַעֲלוֹת הֵמָּה מֵהֶבֶל יָֽחַדHumans are mere breath; mortals, an illusion— placed on a scale all together, they weigh even less than a breath.
11אַל־תִּבְטְחוּ בְעֹשֶׁק וּבְגָזֵל אַל־תֶּהְבָּלוּ חַיִל כִּֽי־יָנוּב אַל־תָּשִׁיתוּ לֵֽבDo not trust in violence, or put false hopes in robbery; if force bears fruit pay it no mind.
12אַחַת דִּבֶּר אֱלֹהִים שְׁתַּֽיִם־זוּ שָׁמָעְתִּי כִּי עֹז לֵֽאלֹהִֽיםOne thing God has spoken; two things have I heard: that might belongs to God,
13וּלְךָֽ־אֲדֹנָי חָסֶד כִּֽי־אַתָּה תְשַׁלֵּם לְאִישׁ כְּֽמַעֲשֵֽׂהוּand faithfulness is Yours, O my Sovereign, to reward everyone according to their deeds.
