Psalms 62:5

Rest and sabbathHopeWaiting on God

3 How long will you threaten a man? Will all of you throw him down like a leaning wall or a tottering fence?

4 They fully intend to cast him down from his lofty perch; they delight in lies; with their mouths they bless, but inwardly they curse. Selah

Rest in God alone, O my soul, for my hope comes from Him.

6 He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress; I will not be shaken.

7 My salvation and my honor rest on God, my strong rock; my refuge is in God.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
