Psalms 62:8
6 He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress; I will not be shaken.
7 My salvation and my honor rest on God, my strong rock; my refuge is in God.
Trust in Him at all times, O people; pour out your hearts before Him. God is our refuge. Selah
9 Lowborn men are but a vapor, the exalted but a lie. Weighed on the scale, they go up; together they are but a vapor.
10 Place no trust in extortion, or false hope in stolen goods. If your riches increase, do not set your heart upon them.
Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
