Psalms 62

1 For the Chief Musician. To Jeduthun. A Psalm by David. My soul rests in God alone. My salvation [yeshuah-ti] is from him.

εἰς τὸ τέλος ὑπὲρ Ιδιθουν ψαλμὸς τῷ Δαυιδ οὐχὶ τῷ θεῷ ὑποταγήσεται ἡ ψυχή μου παρ’ αὐτοῦ γὰρ τὸ σωτήριόν μου

2 He alone is my rock, my salvation, and my fortress. I will never be greatly shaken.

καὶ γὰρ αὐτὸς θεός μου καὶ σωτήρ μου ἀντιλήμπτωρ μου οὐ μὴ σαλευθῶ ἐπὶ πλεῖον

3 How long will you assault a man? Would all of you throw him down, like a leaning wall, like a tottering fence?

ἕως πότε ἐπιτίθεσθε ἐπ’ ἄνθρωπον φονεύετε πάντες ὡς τοίχῳ κεκλιμένῳ καὶ φραγμῷ ὠσμένῳ

4 They fully intend to throw him down from his lofty place. They delight in lies. They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. (Selah)

πλὴν τὴν τιμήν μου ἐβουλεύσαντο ἀπώσασθαι ἔδραμον ἐν ψεύδει τῷ στόματι αὐτῶν εὐλογοῦσαν καὶ τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτῶν κατηρῶντο διάψαλμα

5 My soul, wait in silence for God alone, for my expectation is from him.

πλὴν τῷ θεῷ ὑποτάγηθι ἡ ψυχή μου ὅτι παρ’ αὐτοῦ ἡ ὑπομονή μου

6 He alone is my rock and my salvation [yeshuah-ti], my fortress. I will not be shaken.

ὅτι αὐτὸς θεός μου καὶ σωτήρ μου ἀντιλήμπτωρ μου οὐ μὴ μεταναστεύσω

7 My salvation and my honour is with God. The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

ἐπὶ τῷ θεῷ τὸ σωτήριόν μου καὶ ἡ δόξα μου ὁ θεὸς τῆς βοηθείας μου καὶ ἡ ἐλπίς μου ἐπὶ τῷ θεῷ

8 Trust in him at all times, you people. Pour out your heart before him. God is a refuge for us. (Selah)

ἐλπίσατε ἐπ’ αὐτόν πᾶσα συναγωγὴ λαοῦ ἐκχέετε ἐνώπιον αὐτοῦ τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν ὁ θεὸς βοηθὸς ἡμῶν διάψαλμα

9 Surely men of low degree are just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.

πλὴν μάταιοι οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων ψευδεῖς οἱ υἱοὶ τῶν ἀνθρώπων ἐν ζυγοῖς τοῦ ἀδικῆσαι αὐτοὶ ἐκ ματαιότητος ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτό

10 Don’t trust in oppression. Don’t become vain in robbery. If riches increase, don’t set your heart on them.

μὴ ἐλπίζετε ἐπὶ ἀδικίαν καὶ ἐπὶ ἅρπαγμα μὴ ἐπιποθεῖτε πλοῦτος ἐὰν ῥέῃ μὴ προστίθεσθε καρδίαν

11 God has spoken once; twice I have heard this, that power belongs to God.

ἅπαξ ἐλάλησεν ὁ θεός δύο ταῦτα ἤκουσα

12 Also to you, Lord, belongs loving kindness, for you reward every man according to his work.

ὅτι τὸ κράτος τοῦ θεοῦ καὶ σοί κύριε τὸ ἔλεος ὅτι σὺ ἀποδώσεις ἑκάστῳ κατὰ τὰ ἔργα αὐτοῦ
