1En Dios solamente está acallada mi alma; De él viene mi salvación.
2Él solamente es mi roca y mi salvación; Es mi refugio, no resbalaré mucho.
3¿Hasta cuándo maquinaréis contra un hombre, Tratando todos vosotros de aplastarle Como pared desplomada y como cerca derribada?
4Solamente consultan para arrojarle de su grandeza. Aman la mentira; Con su boca bendicen, pero maldicen en su corazón.
5Alma mía, en Dios solamente reposa, Porque de él es mi esperanza.
6Él solamente es mi roca y mi salvación. Es mi refugio, no resbalaré.
7En Dios está mi salvación y mi gloria; En Dios está mi roca fuerte, y mi refugio.
8Esperad en él en todo tiempo, oh pueblos; Derramad delante de él vuestro corazón; Dios es nuestro refugio.
9Por cierto, vanidad son los hijos de los hombres, mentira los hijos de varón; Pesándolos a todos igualmente en la balanza, Serán menos que nada.
10No confiéis en la violencia, Ni en la rapiña; no os envanezcáis; Si se aumentan las riquezas, no pongáis el corazón en ellas.
11Una vez habló Dios; Dos veces he oído esto: Que de Dios es el poder,
12Y tuya, oh Señor, es la misericordia; Porque tú pagas a cada uno conforme a su obra.

Ps 62 This psalm expresses confidence in the king and offers prayer for him. The king rests in God despite his difficulties. Although his deceptive and powerful adversaries push hard against him, he remains undaunted. He encourages himself and his people to trust in God and to see their human adversaries from God’s perspective, where they appear frail, fleeting, and deceptive (62:9).
