Psalm 62:9-11

In the (D)balances they go up;
They are together lighter than breath.

And do not [a]vainly hope in (F)robbery;
If riches increase, (G)do not set your heart upon them.

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)
