The Scriptures (ISR 1998) 1My being finds rest in Elohim alone; From Him is my deliverance. 2He alone is my rock and my deliverance, my strong tower; I am not greatly shaken. 3How long would you assail a man? You crush him, all of you, Like a leaning wall, a tottering fence. 4They plotted to topple him from his high position; They delight in lies; They bless with their mouth, But in their heart they curse. Selah. 5My being, find rest in Elohim alone, Because my expectation is from Him. 6He alone is my rock and my deliverance, my strong tower; I am not shaken. 7My deliverance and my esteem depend on Elohim; The rock of my strength, my refuge is in Elohim. 8Trust in Him at all times, you people; Pour out your heart before Him; Elohim is a refuge for us. Selah. 9Sons of Aḏam are but a breath, Sons of men are a lie; If weighed in the scales, They are altogether lighter than breath. 10Do not trust in oppression. And do not become vain in robbery; If riches increase, Do not set your heart on them. 11Elohim has spoken once, Twice I have heard this: That strength belongs to Elohim. 12And kindness is Yours, O יהוה; For You reward each one according to his work. |
