A Psalm of David, to Jeduthun, the chief Musician. |
Psalm 62:1-12 Book# 2 of Psalms [in Smaller Chunks] |
Truly my soul waits upon God. My Salvation comes from Him. He is my only Rock & my Salvation. He is my defense & I shall not be greatly [removed.] How long will you [plot] such [evil deeds] against a man? |
You shall be slain, all of you. You shall be [torn down] [like a leaning] wall & a [rickety] fence. They only consult [in order] to cast him down from his [high position.] They delight in lies. They bless with their [mouths,] but [secretly] curse [within themselves.] Selah. |
You, my soul, wait only upon God; for my [hope] is from Him. He only is my Rock & my Salvation. He is my defence & I shall not be [removed.] My Salvation & my glory is in God: the Rock of my strength & my refuge is in God. |
Trust in Him at all times & you people, pour out your [hearts] before Him. God is a refuge for us. Selah. Surely men of low [status] are vanity & men of high [status] are a lie, to be laid [& weighed] in the balance. They are altogether lighter than vanity. |
[Isaiah 46;5-6 To whom will you [compare] Me & make Me equal, that we may be [alike?] They lavish gold out of the bag & weigh silver in the balance & hire a goldsmith. And he makes a god & they fall down,[yes,] they worship [it.] |
Don't] trust in oppression. And [don't] become vain in robbery. If riches increase, [don't] set your heart upon them. [I Timothy 6:10-11 For the love of money is the root of all evil. |
While some [have] coveted after [it,] they have [gone astray] from the faith & pierced themselves through with many sorrows. But you, O man of God, flee these things & follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love & [humility.] |
God has spoken once & I have heard this twice; that power belongs to God. To You, O Lord, also belongs mercy. For You [reward] to every man according to his work. |
[Revelation 22:12-15 And, [watch, I come quickly & My reward is with Me & shall be to give to every man according [t] his [deeds.] I am [the] Alpha & [the] Omega, the Beginning & the End, the First & the Last. |
Blessed are [those who] do His commandments, [so] they may have right to the Tree of Life & may enter in through the gates into the city. For [outside] are dogs, sorcerers, [sexual traffickers,] murderers, idolaters & [whoever invents & tells lies.] |
