Tyndale Open Study Notes (CC BY-SA 4.0).
Ps 62 This psalm expresses confidence in the king and offers prayer for him. The king rests in God despite his difficulties. Although his deceptive and powerful adversaries push hard against him, he remains undaunted. He encourages himself and his people to trust in God and to see their human adversaries from God’s perspective, where they appear frail, fleeting, and deceptive (62:9).62:title Jeduthun: See 1 Chr 25:1; also in Pss 39 and 77.

The LORD is good unto them that wait for him, to the soul that seeketh him.
He only is my rock and my salvation; he is my defence; I shall not be greatly moved.
Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass.
But they that wait upon the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.
Our soul waiteth for the LORD: he is our help and our shield.
Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the LORD JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; he also is become my salvation.
