WORDS OF CURRENT INTEREST

[The words in this issue are related to the Lesson-Sermon in the Christian Science Quarterly designated to be read in Christian Science churches on May 31, 1964.]

My soul, wait thou only upon God; for my expectation is from him (Ps. 62:5)

The Hebrew word dommi (wait) is connected with the root damam, meaning be silent, or rest. Hence the Revised Standard Version translates the verse as follows: "For God alone my soul waits in silence, for my hope is from him." Moffatt has, "Leave it all quietly to God, my soul, my rescue comes from him alone."

They have consulted together with one consent: they are confederate against thee (Ps. 83:5)
