Psalm 62
For the director of music. For Jeduthun. A psalm of David.
1It is surely true that I find my rest in God.
He is the God who saves me.
2It is surely true that he is my rock. He is the God who saves me.
He is like a fort to me. I will always be secure.
3How long will you enemies attack me?
Will all of you throw me down?
I’m like a leaning wall.
I’m like a fence about to fall.
4Surely my enemies only want to pull me down
from my place of honor.
They take delight in telling lies.
They bless me with what they say.
But in their hearts they ask for bad things to happen to me.
5Yes, I must find my rest in God.
He is the God who gives me hope.
6It is surely true that he is my rock and the God who saves me.
He is like a fort to me, so I will always be secure.
7I depend on God to save me and to honor me.
He is my mighty rock and my place of safety.
8Trust in him at all times, you people.
Tell him all your troubles.
God is our place of safety.
9Surely ordinary people are only a breath.
Important people are not what they seem to be.
If they were weighed on a scale, they wouldn’t amount to anything.
Together they are only a breath.
10Don’t trust in money you have taken from others.
Don’t put false hope in things you have stolen.
Even if your riches grow,
don’t put your trust in them.
11God, I have heard you say two things.
One is that power belongs to you, God.
12The other is that your love, Lord, never ends.
You will reward everyone
in keeping with what they have done.
Salmo 62Sal 62 En el texto hebreo 62:1-12 se numera 62:2-13.
Al director musical. Para Jedutún. Salmo de David.
1Solo en Dios halla descanso mi alma;
de él viene mi salvación.
2Solo él es mi roca y mi salvación;
él es mi refugio,
¡jamás caeré!
3¿Hasta cuándo atacarán todos ustedes
a un hombre para derribarlo,
como si fuera un muro inclinado
o una cerca a punto de derrumbarse?
4Solo quieren derribarlo
de su lugar de honor.
Se complacen en la mentira:
bendicen con la boca,
pero maldicen con el corazón. Selah
5Solo en Dios halla descanso mi alma;
de él viene mi esperanza.
6Solo él es mi roca y mi salvación;
él es mi refugio,
¡no caeré!
7Dios es mi salvación y mi gloria;
es la roca que me fortalece;
mi refugio está en Dios.
8Oh, pueblo, confía en él siempre,
derrama ante él tu corazón,
pues Dios es nuestro refugio. Selah
9Una quimera es la gente de humilde cuna,
y una mentira la gente de alta alcurnia;
si se les pusiera juntos en la balanza,
pesarían menos que un soplo.
10No confíen en la extorsión
ni se hagan ilusiones con sus rapiñas;
y aunque se multipliquen sus riquezas,
no pongan el corazón en ellas.
11Una cosa ha dicho Dios
y dos veces lo he escuchado:
Que tú, oh Dios, eres poderoso;
12que tú, Señor, eres todo amor;
que tú pagarás a cada uno
según lo que merezcan sus obras.
