They only consult to cast him down from his excellency: they delight in lies: they bless with their mouth, but they curse inwardly. Selah.

Verse 4 is found in chapter 62 of Psalms. Psalm 62 insists that the soul finds rest only in God. Repeated expressions such as rock, salvation, and refuge create a structure of trust contrasting with human instability. The psalmist warns against trusting in oppression and riches as well as becoming fascinated with power. The conclusion brings together two decisive attributes of God: power and mercy, both foundations of his justice.

Wie lange stellt ihr alle einem nach, daß ihr ihn erwürget - als eine hängende Wand und zerrissene Mauer?
Solamente consultan de arrojarle de su grandeza; Aman la mentira, Con su boca bendicen, pero maldicen en sus entrañas. (Selah.)
Solo planean derribarlo de su altura. Se complacen en la mentira; con la boca bendicen, pero por dentro maldicen. Selah.
Ils conspirent pour le précipiter de son poste élevé; Ils prennent plaisir au mensonge; Ils bénissent de leur bouche, Et ils maudissent dans leur coeur. -Pause.
Essi non consigliano d’altro che di sospinger giù quest’uomo dalla sua altezza; Prendono piacere in menzogna; Benedicono colla lor bocca, Ma maledicono nel loro interiore. Sela.
Eles somente consultam como o hão de derrubar da sua excelência; deleitam-se em mentiras; com a boca bendizem, mas nas suas entranhas maldizem. (Selá.)
他們彼此商議,要把他從高位上拉下來; 他們喜愛謊話,口雖祝福,心卻詛咒。(細拉)
