7Let him sit enthroned before God for ever; *
bid love and faithfulness watch over him.

8So will I always sing the praise of your Name, *
and day by day I will fulfill my vows.

Twelfth Day: Morning Prayer

62Nonne Deo?

1For God alone my soul in silence waits; *
from him comes my salvation.

2He alone is my rock and my salvation, *
my stronghold, so that I shall not be greatly shaken.

3How long will you assail me to crush me,
all of you together, *
as if you were a leaning fence, a toppling wall?

4They seek only to bring me down from my place of honor; *
lies are their chief delight.

5They bless with their lips, *
but in their hearts they curse.

6For God alone my soul in silence waits; *
truly, my hope is in him.

7He alone is my rock and my salvation, *
my stronghold, so that I shall not be shaken.

8In God is my safety and my honor; *
God is my strong rock and my refuge.

9Put your trust in him always, O people, *
pour out your hearts before him, for God is our refuge.

Psalm 62669
