Psalm 62:3-5

The Voice

³ How long will you attack a man?
    How long will all of you strive to crush your prey
    when he’s like a leaning fence or a wall on the verge of collapse?
⁴ Their only purpose in life is to knock him down from his prominent position;
    they love deceit.
When others are around, they speak a blessing on someone,
    but inwardly they are mumbling a curse.

[pause]

⁵ My soul quietly waits for the True God alone
    because I hope only in Him.
