My victory and honor come from God alone.
    He is my refuge, a rock where no enemy can reach me.
O my people, trust in him at all times.
    Pour out your heart to him,
    for God is our refuge. Interlude

    together they are lighter than a breath of air.

My salvation and my honor depend on God[a];
    he is my mighty rock, my refuge.(A)
Trust in him at all times, you people;(B)
    pour out your hearts to him,(C)
    for God is our refuge.

Surely the lowborn(D) are but a breath,(E)
    the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance,(F) they are nothing;
    together they are only a breath.
