He alone is my rock and my salvation,(A)
my stronghold; I will never be shaken.(B)

How long will you threaten a man?
Will all of you attack[a]

or a tottering stone fence?(C)
They only plan to bring him down
from his high position.
They take pleasure in lying;
they bless with their mouths,
but they curse inwardly.(D)Selah

  1. Psalm 62:3 Some Hb mss read you be struck down

Truly he is my rock(A) and my salvation;(B)
    he is my fortress,(C) I will never be shaken.(D)

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

    from my lofty place;
    they take delight in lies.
With their mouths they bless,
    but in their hearts they curse.[a](F)
