I am at rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him.He alone is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I will never be shaken.How long will you threaten a man?

They take pleasure in lying; they bless with their mouths, but they curse inwardly. SelahRest in God alone, my soul, for my hope comes from him.He alone is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I will not be shaken.My salvation and glory depend on God, my strong rock. My refuge is in God.Trust in him at all times, you people; pour out your hearts before him. God is our refuge. Selah
