1Truly, my soul waiteth upon God; from Him cometh my salvation. 2He only is my Rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be greatly moved. 3How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? Ye shall be slain all of you; as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence. 4They only consult to cast him down from his excellency; they delight in lies; they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah. 5My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from Him. 6He only is my Rock and my salvation; He is my defense; I shall not be moved. 7In God is my salvation and my glory; the Rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. 8Trust in Him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah.

9Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie; to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity. 10Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery; if riches increase, set not your heart upon them. 11God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God. 12Also unto Thee, O LORD, belongeth mercy; for Thou renderest to every man according to his work.
