My soul, wait silently for God alone,
For my [a]expectation is from Him.
He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my defense;
I shall not be [b]moved.
(A)In God is my salvation and my glory;
The rock of my strength,
And my refuge, is in God.

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

(C)Surely men of low degree are [c]a vapor,
Men of high degree are a lie;
If they are weighed on the scales,
They are altogether lighter than vapor.
10 Do not trust in oppression,
Nor vainly hope in robbery;
(D)If riches increase,
Do not set your heart on them.

11 God has spoken once,
Twice I have heard this:
That power belongs to God.
12 Also to You, O Lord, belongs mercy;
For (E)You [d]render to each one according to his work.
