Psalms 62:3 in Context — Psalms 62

1 Al Músico principal: á Jeduthún: Salmo de David. EN Dios solamente está acallada mi alma: de él [viene] mi salud.

2 El solamente es mi fuerte, y mi salud; [es] mi refugio, no resbalaré mucho.

3 ¿Hasta cuándo maquinaréis contra un hombre? Pereceréis todos vosotros, [caeréis] como pared acostada, como cerca ruinosa.

4 Solamente consultan de arrojarle de su grandeza; aman la mentira, con su boca bendicen, pero maldicen en sus entrañas. (Selah.)

5 Alma mía, en Dios solamente reposa; porque de él es mi esperanza.
