Don’t trust in oppression.
Don’t become vain in robbery.
If riches increase,
don’t set your heart on them.

Psalms 62:7–12
7
My salvation and my honor is with God.
The rock of my strength, and my refuge, is in God.

Trust in him at all times, you people.
Pour out your heart before him.
God is a refuge for us. Selah.

Surely men of low degree are just a breath,
and men of high degree are a lie.
In the balances they will go up.
They are together lighter than a breath.

for you reward every man according to his work.
