Psalms 49:1

Hear this, all you peoples; listen, all inhabitants of the world,

2 both low and high, rich and poor alike.

3 My mouth will impart wisdom, and the meditation of my heart will bring understanding.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
