Psalm 62:9

Trust In God Alone

⁸ Trust in Him at all times, O people;
Pour out your heart before Him;
God is a refuge for us. Selah.
⁹ Men of low degree are only vanity and men of rank are a lie;
In the balances they go up;
They are together lighter than breath.
¹⁰ Do not trust in oppression
And do not vainly hope in robbery;
If riches increase, do not set your heart upon them.
