Psalms 62:5-12

5For God alone my soul waits in silence and quietly submits to Him, For my hope is from Him.

6He only is my rock and my salvation; My fortress and my defense, I will not be shaken or discouraged.

7On God my salvation and my glory rest; He is my rock of [unyielding] strength, my refuge is in God.

8Trust [confidently] in Him at all times, O people; Pour out your heart before Him. God is a refuge for us. Selah.

9Men of low degree are only a breath (emptiness), and men of [high] rank are a lie (delusion). In the balances they go up [because they have no measurable weight or value]; They are together lighter than a breath.

10Do not trust in oppression, And do not vainly hope in robbery; If riches increase, do not set your heart on them.

11God has spoken once, Twice I have heard this: That power belongs to God.

12Also to You, O Lord, belong lovingkindness and compassion, For You compensate every man according to [the value of] his work.
