Context of Psalms 62:6

4They only consult to thrust him down from his dignity; They delight in lies; They bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. [Selah 5My soul, wait thou in silence for God only; For my expectation is from him. He only is my rock and my salvation: He ismy high tower; I shall not be moved. 7With God is my salvation and my glory: The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God. 8Trust in him at all times, ye people; Pour out your heart before him: God is a refuge for us. [Selah
