Salmo 62 (61)

Sólo Dios es mi descanso

62 Al maestro del coro. De Yedutún. Salmo de David.
Sólo Dios es mi descanso,
de él viene mi salvación;
sólo él es mi roca, mi salvación,
mi fortaleza, ¡no sucumbiré!
¿Hasta cuándo atacarán a uno
tratando de derribarlo todos juntos
como a un muro que se desploma,
como a una pared a punto de caer?
Sólo buscan arrebatarle su grandeza,
se complacen en la mentira:
mientras bendicen con su boca
están maldiciendo en su interior. [ Pausa]
Sólo Dios es mi descanso,
de él viene mi esperanza.
Sólo él es mi roca, mi salvación,
mi fortaleza, ¡no sucumbiré!
En Dios está mi salvación, mi gloria
y mi fortaleza; en Dios está mi refugio.
Confíen siempre en él
los que forman su pueblo;
abran ante él su corazón,
pues Dios es nuestro refugio. [ Pausa]
10 Sólo un soplo es el ser humano,
sólo un espejismo son los mortales;
todos puestos en una balanza,
todos juntos, pesan menos que un soplo.
11 No confíen en la violencia,
no se ilusionen con el robo;
si aumenta su riqueza,
no le presten atención.
12 Sólo una cosa ha dicho Dios,
dos cosas yo he oído:
que de Dios es el poder
13 y tuyo el amor, mi Señor;
que tú pagas a cada uno
como merecen sus obras.

A Calm Resolve to Wait for the Salvation of God

To the Chief Musician. To (A)Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

62 Truly (B)my soul silently waits for God;
From Him comes my salvation.
He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my [a]defense;
I shall not be greatly (C)moved.[b]

How long will you attack a man?
You shall be slain, all of you,
(D)Like a leaning wall and a tottering fence.
They only consult to cast him down from his high position;
They (E)delight in lies;
They bless with their mouth,
But they curse inwardly. Selah

My soul, wait silently for God alone,
For my [c]expectation is from Him.
He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my defense;
I shall not be [d]moved.
(F)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;
(G)Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah

(H)Surely men of low degree are [e]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;
(I)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 (J)You [f]render to each one according to his work.

My Soul Waits for God Alone

To the choirmaster: according to (A)Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.

62 For God alone (B)my soul (C)waits in silence;
    from him comes my salvation.
(D)He alone is my rock and my salvation,
    my (E)fortress; (F)I shall not be greatly shaken.

How long will all of you attack a man
    to batter him,
    like (G)a leaning wall, a tottering fence?
They only plan to thrust him down from his (H)high position.
    They take pleasure in falsehood.
(I)They bless with their mouths,
    but inwardly they curse. Selah

For God alone, O (J)my soul, wait in silence,
    for my hope is from him.
(K)He only is my rock and my salvation,
    my fortress; I shall not be shaken.
On God rests my (L)salvation and my glory;
    my mighty rock, (M)my refuge is God.

(N)Trust in him at all times, O people;
    (O)pour out your heart before him;
    God is (P)a refuge for us. Selah

(Q)Those of low estate are but a breath;
    those of high estate (R)are a delusion;
in the balances they go up;
    (S)they are together lighter than a breath.
10 Put no trust in extortion;
    (T)set no vain hopes on robbery;
    (U)if riches increase, set not your heart on them.

11 (V)Once God has spoken;
    (W)twice have I heard this:
that (X)power belongs to God,
12     and that to you, O Lord, (Y)belongs steadfast love.
For you will (Z)render to a man
    according to his work.
