Psalm 62:2-4
Contemporary English Version

2 God alone is the mighty rock[a]
    that keeps me safe
and the fortress
    where I am secure.

3 I feel like a shaky fence
    or a sagging wall.
How long will all of you
    attack and assault me?
4 You want to bring me down
    from my place of honor.
You love to tell lies,
and when your words are kind,
    hatred hides in your heart.

Psalm 62:2-4
New International Version

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

3 How long will you assault me?
    Would all of you throw me down—
    this leaning wall,(E) this tottering fence?
4 Surely they intend to topple me
    from my lofty place;
    they take delight in lies.
With their mouths they bless,
    but in their hearts they curse.[a](F)
