[ Read](/kjv/psalms/62)[ Commentary](/study/psalms/62)[ Interlinear](/interlinear/psalms/62) Audio

 1 Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him *cometh* my salvation.**

 2 He only *is* my rock and my salvation; *he is* my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.*

 3 How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall *shall ye be, and as* a tottering fence.

 4 They only consult to cast *him* down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.*

 5 My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation *is* from him.

 6 He only *is* my rock and my salvation: *he is* my defence; I shall not be moved.

 7 In 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; *ye* people, pour out your heart before him: God *is* a refuge for us. Selah.

 9 Surely men of low degree *are* vanity, *and* men of high degree *are* a lie: to be laid in the balance, they *are* altogether *lighter* than vanity.*

 10 Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart *upon them*.

 11 God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power *belongeth* unto God.*

 12 Also unto thee, O Lord, *belongeth* mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.

## Commentary

 To verse 1
 
[Psalms 62:0](/kjv/psalms/62/0). 

*David, professing his confidence in God, discourageth his enemies. In the same confidence he encourageth the godly. No trust is to be put in worldly things. Power and mercy belong to God.* 

To the chief musician, to Jeduthun; A Psalm of David. 

*Title.*ידותון על למנצח *lamnatseach al ieduthun.*] It is not said, upon what occasion this psalm was written. Bishop Patrick apprehends that David composed it when he had overcome all the fears into which the rebellion of Absalom at first threw him, though he was not yet fully restored to his kingdom. It is evidently a psalm of praise for some deliverance which the author attributes wholly to God, on whom alone therefore he advises all people to place their dependance. 

***[Psalms 62:1](/kjv/psalms/62/1)*****.*****Truly my soul waiteth*****—** *Even to God is my soul silent;*see [Psalms 62:5](/kjv/psalms/62/5).
