## God Is a Refuge for Us 

###### 1
Surely my soul _waits_ in silence for God; From Him is my salvation. 

###### 2
Surely He is my rock and my salvation, My stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken. 

###### 3
How long will you assail a man, That you may murder _him_, all of you, Like a leaning wall, like a fence thrust down? 

###### 4
Surely they have counseled to thrust him down from his high position; They find pleasure in falsehood; They bless with their mouth, But inwardly they curse. Selah. 

###### 5
Surely wait in silence for God, O my soul, For my hope is from Him. 

###### 6
Surely He is my rock and my salvation, My stronghold; I shall not be shaken. 

###### 7
On God my salvation and my glory _rest_; The rock of my strength, my refuge is in God. 

###### 8
Trust in Him at all times, O people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah. 

###### 9
Surely men of low degree are _merely_ vanity and men of rank are a lie; In the balances they go up; They are together lighter than _a breath_ of vanity. 

###### 10
Do not trust in oppression And do not put vain hope in robbery; If riches increase, do not set _your_ heart _upon them_. 

###### 11
Once God has spoken; Twice I have heard this: That strength belongs to God; 

###### 12
And that to You, O Lord, belongs lovingkindness, For You repay a man according to his work.
