The Book of Psalms
Psalm 61
Nonne Deo.
The prophet encourageth himself and all others to trust in God, and serve him.
 1 |
Unto the end, for Idithun, a psalm of David. |
2 |
Shall not my soul be subject to God? for from him is my salvation. |
3 |
For he is my God and my saviour: he is my protector, I shall be moved no more. |
4 |
How long do you rush in upon a man? you all kill, as if you were thrusting down a leaning wall, and a tottering fence. |
5 |
But they have thought to cast away my price; I ran in thirst: they blessed with their mouth, but cursed with their heart. |
6 |
But be thou, O my soul, subject to God: for from him is my patience. |
7 |
For he is my God and my saviour: he is my helper, I shall not be moved. |
8 |
In God is my salvation and my glory: he is the God of my help, and my hope is in God. |
9 |
Trust in him, all ye congregation of people: pour out your hearts before him. God is our helper for ever. |
10 |
But vain are the sons of men, the sons of men are liars in the balances: that by vanity they may together deceive. |
11 |
Trust not in iniquity, and cover not robberies: if riches abound, set not your heart upon them. |
12 |
God hath spoken once, these two things have I heard, that power belongeth to God, |
13 |
And mercy to thee, O Lord; for thou wilt render to every man according to his works. |
