For Jeduthun, the choir director: A psalm of David.
I wait quietly before God,
for my victory comes from him.

Truly he is my rock and my salvation;
he is my fortress, I will never be shaken.

He alone is my rock and my salvation,
my fortress where I will never be shaken.

How long will you assault me?
Would all of you throw me down —
this leaning wall, this tottering fence?

To them I’m just a broken-down wall
or a tottering fence.

To them I’m just a broken-down wall
or a tottering fence.
They plan to topple me from my high position.
They delight in telling lies about me.
They praise me to my face
but curse me in their hearts.

Surely the lowborn are but a breath,
the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance, they are nothing;
together they are only a breath.
the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance, they are nothing;
together they are only a breath.
Common people are as worthless as a puff of wind,
and the powerful are not what they appear to be.
If you weigh them on the scales,
together they are lighter than a breath of air.

do not set your heart on them.

God has spoken plainly,
and I have heard it many times:
Power, O God, belongs to you;
and I have heard it many times:
Power, O God, belongs to you;
