Psalms 62 — TOJB

See Hebrew/Greek in BSB →

62Verse 1(For the one directing. According to Yedutun. Mizmor of Dovid)Verse 2Truly my nefesh waiteth silently+upon Elohim;
from Him cometh my Yeshu'ah (salvation).
Verse 3Truly He is my Tzur and my Yeshu'ah (salvation);
He is my stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.
Verse 4How long will ye rush to attack an ish?
To thrust at, all of you,
as at a leaning kir (wall),
and as at a tottering gader (fence).
Verse 5Truly they consult to bring down a person of prominence;
they delight in kazav (lie, falsehood, deceptive thing);
they make a brocha with their mouth,
but they curse inwardly.
Selah
Verse 6Truly in Elohim wait silently,+my nefesh,
for my tikvah (hope) is from Him.
Verse 7Truly He is my Tzur and my Yeshu'ah (salvation);
He is my stronghold; I shall not be shaken.
Verse 8In Elohim is my salvation and my Kavod:
the Tzur of my strength, and my refuge, is in Elohim.
Verse 9Trust in Him at all time ye people,
pour out your lev before Him;
Elohim is a refuge for us.
Selah
Verse 10Truly Bnei Adam (those of low estate) are hevel (vanity),
and Bnei Ish (those who are highborn) are kazav (a lie);
they go up in the balances;
they are altogether lighter than hevel (vanity).
Verse 11Trust not in oshek (oppression, extortion)
and become not vain in gazel (the thing taken as plunder);
if riches increase,
set not your lev upon them.
Verse 12Elohim hath spoken once;
twice have I heard this;
that oz (strength) belongeth unto Elohim.
Verse 13Also unto Thee, Adonoi, belongeth chesed;
for Thou renderest to ish (every man) according to his ma'asim (deeds).
