Complete reliance

Psalm 62 (New Century Version)

 1 I find rest in God;
       only he can save me.
 2 He is my rock and my salvation.
       He is my defender;
       I will not be defeated.

 3 How long will you attack someone?
       Will all of you kill that person?
       Who is like a leaning wall, like a fence ready to fall?
 4 They are planning to make that person fall.
       They enjoy telling lies.
    With their mouths they bless,
       but in their hearts they curse.
                         Selah


 5 I find rest in God;
       only he gives me hope.
 6 He is my rock and my salvation.
       He is my defender;
       I will not be defeated.
 7 My honor and salvation come from God.
       He is my mighty rock and my protection.

 8 People, trust God all the time.
       Tell him all your problems,
       because God is our protection.
                         Selah


 9 The least of people are only a breath,
       and even the greatest are just a lie.
    On the scales, they weigh nothing;
       together they are only a breath.
 10 Do not trust in force.
       Stealing is of no use.
    Even if you gain more riches,
       don't put your trust in them.

 11 God has said this,
       and I have heard it over and over:
       God is strong.
 12 The Lord is loving.
       You reward people for what they have done.
