^1 1-2 God, the one and only—
    I'll wait as long as he says.
Everything I need comes from him,
    so why not?
He's solid rock under my feet,
    breathing room for my soul,
An impregnable castle:
    I'm set for life.^3-4 How long will you gang up on me?
    How long will you run with the bullies?
There's nothing to you, any of you—
    rotten floorboards, worm-eaten rafters,
Anthills plotting to bring down mountains,
    far gone in make-believe.
You talk a good line,
    but every "blessing" breathes a curse.^5-6 God, the one and only—
    I'll wait as long as he says.
Everything I hope for comes from him,
    so why not?
He's solid rock under my feet,
    breathing room for my soul,
An impregnable castle:
    I'm set for life.^7-8 My help and glory are in God
    —granite-strength and safe-harbor-God—
So trust him absolutely, people;
    lay your lives on the line for him.
    God is a safe place to be.

⁹ Man as such is smoke,
    woman as such, a mirage.
Put them together, they're nothing;
    two times nothing is nothing.

¹⁰ And a windfall, if it comes—
    don't make too much of it.

¹¹ God said this once and for all;
    how many times
Have I heard it repeated?
    "Strength comes
Straight from God."

¹² Love to you, Lord God!
    You pay a fair wage for a good day's work!
