Psalms 62:6 - Forerunner Commentary

Psalms 62:6

4 They only consult to cast him down from his high position;
They ^adelight in lies;
They bless with their mouth,
But they curse inwardly. Selah

5 My soul, wait silently for God alone,
For my¹ expectation is from Him.

6 He only is my rock and my salvation;
He is my defense;
I shall not be¹ moved.

7 ^aIn God is my salvation and my glory;
The rock of my strength,
And my refuge, is in God.

8 Trust in Him at all times, you people;
^aPour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah

9 ^aSurely men of low degree are¹ 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;
^aIf riches increase,
Do not set your heart on them.
