< Psalms 62 >

1 To the chief music-maker. After Jeduthun. A Psalm. Of David. My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my salvation.
לַמְנַצֵּחַ עַֽל־יְדוּתוּן מִזְמוֹר לְדָוִֽד׃ אַךְ אֶל־אֱלֹהִים דּֽוּמִיָּה נַפְשִׁי מִמֶּנּוּ יְשׁוּעָתִֽי׃
2 He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.
אַךְ־הוּא צוּרִי וִישׁוּעָתִי מִשְׂגַּבִּי לֹא־אֶמּוֹט רַבָּֽה׃
3 How long will you go on designing evil against a man? running against him as against a broken wall, which is on the point of falling?
עַד־אָנָה ׀ תְּהוֹתְתוּ עַל־אִישׁ תְּרָצְּחוּ כֻלְּכֶם כְּקִיר נָטוּי גָּדֵר הַדְּחוּיָֽה׃
4 Their only thought is to put him down from his place of honour; their delight is in deceit: blessing is in their mouths but cursing in their hearts. (Selah)
אַךְ מִשְּׂאֵתוֹ ׀ יָעֲצוּ לְהַדִּיחַ יִרְצוּ כָזָב בְּפִיו יְבָרֵכוּ וּבְקִרְבָּם יְקַֽלְלוּ־סֶֽלָה׃
5 My soul, put all your faith in God; for from him comes my hope.
אַךְ לֵאלֹהִים דּוֹמִּי נַפְשִׁי כִּֽי־מִמֶּנּוּ תִּקְוָתִֽי׃
6 He only is my Rock and my salvation; he is my high tower; I will not be greatly moved.
אַךְ־הוּא צוּרִי וִישׁוּעָתִי מִשְׂגַּבִּי לֹא אֶמּֽוֹט׃
7 In God is my salvation, and my glory; the Rock of my strength, and my safe place.
עַל־אֱלֹהִים יִשְׁעִי וּכְבוֹדִי צוּר־עֻזִּי מַחְסִי בֵּאלֹהִֽים׃
8 Have faith in him at all times, you people; let your hearts go flowing out before him: God is our safe place. (Selah)
בִּטְחוּ בוֹ בְכׇל־עֵת ׀ עָם שִׁפְכֽוּ־לְפָנָיו לְבַבְכֶם אֱלֹהִים מַֽחֲסֶה־לָּנוּ סֶֽלָה׃
9 Truly men of low birth are nothing, and men of high position are not what they seem; if they are put in the scales together they are less than a breath.
אַךְ ׀ הֶבֶל בְּנֵֽי־אָדָם כָּזָב בְּנֵי ־ אִישׁ בְּמֹאזְנַיִם לַעֲלוֹת הֵמָּה מֵהֶבֶל יָֽחַד׃
10 Have no faith in the rewards of evil-doing, or in profits wrongly made: if your wealth is increased, do not put your hopes on it.
אַל־תִּבְטְחוּ בְעֹשֶׁק וּבְגָזֵל אַל־תֶּהְבָּלוּ חַיִל ׀ כִּֽי־יָנוּב אַל־תָּשִׁיתוּ לֵֽב׃
11 Once has God said, twice has it come to my ears, that power is God's:
אַחַת ׀ דִּבֶּר אֱלֹהִים שְׁתַּֽיִם־זוּ שָׁמָעְתִּי כִּי עֹז לֵֽאלֹהִֽים׃
12 And mercy, O Lord, is yours, for you give to every man the reward of his work.
וּלְךָֽ־אֲדֹנָי חָסֶד כִּֽי־אַתָּה תְשַׁלֵּם לְאִישׁ כְּֽמַעֲשֵֽׂהוּ׃
