Psalms
The Psalter is Israel’s hymnbook: lament, praise, thanksgiving, royal psalms, and wisdom. It trains the heart to speak to God in trouble and in joy, and it points ahead to the Messiah.

Psalms 62
1To the chief Musician. On Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. UponGod alone doth my soul rest peacefully; from him is my salvation. 2He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be greatly moved. 3How long will ye assail a man; will ye [seek], all of you, to break him down as a bowing wall or a tottering fence? 4They only consult to thrust [him] down from his excellency; they delight in lies; they bless with their mouth, but in their inward part they curse. Selah. 5UponGod alone, O my soul, rest peacefully; for my expectation is from him. 6He only is my rock and my salvation; my high fortress: I shall not be moved. 7WithGod is my salvation and my glory; the rock of my strength, my refuge is inGod. 8Confide in him at all times, ye people; pour out your heart before him:God is our refuge. Selah. 9Men of low degree are only vanity; men of high degree, a lie: laid in the balance, they go up together [lighter] than vanity. 10Put not confidence in oppression, and become not vain in robbery; if wealth increase, set not your heart upon it. 11Once hathGod spoken, twice have I heard this, that strength [belongeth] untoGod. 12And unto thee, O Lord, [belongeth] loving-kindness; for thou renderest to every man according to his work.
