To the director, Jeduthun.[a] A song of David.

62 I must calm down and turn to God;
    only he can rescue me.
He is my Rock, the only one who can save me.
    He is my high place of safety, where no army can defeat me.

How long will you people attack me?
    Do you all want to kill me?
I am like a leaning wall,
    like a fence ready to fall.

Truly my soul finds rest(A) in God;(B)

Truly he is my rock(C) and my salvation;(D)
    he is my fortress,(E) I will never be shaken.(F)
