1  My soul finds rest in God alone;
From him comes my salvation sure.
2  My safety, fortress, sheltering rock—
In him alone I am secure.

3  How long will you assault a man?
Do you all seek to lay him low—
This leaning wall, this tottering fence—
And bring about his overthrow?

4  They plan his fall from his high place;
They take delight in spreading lies.
With false and flattering mouths they bless,
But in their hearts curse and despise.

5  Find rest, my soul, in God alone;
In him my hope is ever sure.
6  My safety, fortress, sheltering rock—
In him alone I am secure.

7  My honour and salvation rest
On God, my rock and mighty fort.

8  O people, trust in him always;
To him alone pour out your heart.

9  The low-born man is but a breath;
The high-born man is but a lie.
Weighed in a balance, side by side,
They come to nothing but a sigh.

10  Do not seek after wealth by force,
Or triumph in ill-gotten gain;
And even though your goods increase,
Set not your heart on what is vain.

11  My God has spoken; I have heard
12  That you are strong and loving, Lord.
Each one according to his deeds
You will assuredly reward.
