Psalm 62:9-11
Common English Bible
9 Human beings are nothing but a breath.
Human beings are nothing but lies.
They don’t even register on a scale;
taken all together they are lighter than a breath!
10 Don’t trust in violence;
don’t set false hopes in robbery.
When wealth bears fruit,
don’t set your heart on it.
11 God has spoken one thing—
make it two things—
that I myself have heard:
that strength belongs to God,
Psalm 62:9-11
New International Version
9 Surely the lowborn(A) are but a breath,(B)
the highborn are but a lie.
If weighed on a balance,(C) they are nothing;
together they are only a breath.
10 Do not trust in extortion(D)
or put vain hope in stolen goods;(E)
though your riches increase,
do not set your heart on them.(F)
11 One thing God has spoken,
two things I have heard:
“Power belongs to you, God,(G)
