Psalms 62:12

10 Place no trust in extortion, or false hope in stolen goods. If your riches increase, do not set your heart upon them.

11 God has spoken once; I have heard this twice: that power belongs to God,

and loving devotion to You, O Lord. For You will repay each man according to his deeds.
