1Al direttore del coro. Per Iedutun. Salmo di Davide. Solo in Dio trova riposo l’anima mia; da lui proviene la mia salvezza.2Lui solo è la mia rocca e la mia salvezza, il mio alto rifugio; io non potrò vacillare.3Fino a quando vi scaglierete contro un uomo e cercherete tutti insieme di abbatterlo come si abbatte una parete che pende, o un muricciolo che cede?4Essi non pensano che a farlo cadere dalla sua altezza, prendono piacere nella menzogna; benedicono con la bocca, ma in cuor loro maledicono. [Pausa]5Anima mia, trova riposo in Dio solo, poiché da lui proviene la mia speranza.6Egli solo è la mia rocca e la mia salvezza; egli è il mio rifugio; io non potrò vacillare.7Dio è la mia salvezza e la mia gloria; la mia forte rocca e il mio rifugio sono in Dio.8Confida in lui in ogni tempo, o popolo; apri il tuo cuore in sua presenza; Dio è il nostro rifugio. [Pausa]9Gli uomini del volgo non sono che vanità, e i nobili non sono che menzogna; messi sulla bilancia vanno su, tutti insieme sono più leggeri della vanità.10Non abbiate fiducia nella violenza, non mettete vane speranze nella rapina; se le ricchezze abbondano, si distacchi da esse il vostro cuore.11Dio ha parlato una volta, due volte ho udito questo: che il potere appartiene a Dio.12A te pure, o Signore, appartiene la misericordia; perché tu retribuirai ciascuno secondo le sue azioni.
To the choirmaster: according to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David.
1For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation. (Sal 33,20; Sal 37,7)2He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly shaken. (Sal 9,9; Sal 10,6; Sal 18,2)3How long will all of you attack a man to batter him, like a leaning wall, a tottering fence? (Is 30,13)4They only plan to thrust him down from his high position. They take pleasure in falsehood. They bless with their mouths, but inwardly they curse. Selah (Giob 13,11; Sal 28,3)5For God alone, O my soul, wait in silence, for my hope is from him. (Sal 1,1)6He only is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be shaken. (Sal 2,1)7On God rests my salvation and my glory; my mighty rock, my refuge is God. (Sal 3,8; Sal 14,6)8Trust in him at all times, O people; pour out your heart before him; God is a refuge for us. Selah (Sal 7,1; Sal 37,3; Sal 42,4)9Those of low estate are but a breath; those of high estate are a delusion; in the balances they go up; they are together lighter than a breath. (Sal 39,5; Sal 116,11; Is 40,17)10Put no trust in extortion; set no vain hopes on robbery; if riches increase, set not your heart on them. (Sal 49,6; Prov 1,10; Lu 12,15)11Once God has spoken; twice have I heard this: that power belongs to God, (Giob 33,14; Giob 40,5; Sal 59,9; Sal 59,17; Ap 19,1)12and that to you, O Lord, belongs steadfast love. For you will render to a man according to his work. (Giob 34,11; Sal 86,5; Sal 86,15; Sal 103,8; Da 9,9)
Salmo 62
King James Version
1To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of David. Truly my soul waiteth upon God: from him cometh my salvation.2He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.3How long will ye imagine mischief against a man? ye shall be slain all of you: as a bowing wall shall ye be, and as a tottering fence.4They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.5My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him.6He only is my rock and my salvation: he is my defence; I shall not be moved.7In God is my salvation and my glory: the rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.8Trust in him at all times; ye people, pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. Selah.9Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity.10Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them .11God hath spoken once; twice have I heard this; that power belongeth unto God.12Also unto thee, O Lord, belongeth mercy: for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
