Psalm 62:9-10
New Living Translation
9 Common people are as worthless as a puff of wind,
and the powerful are not what they appear to be.
If you weigh them on the scales,
together they are lighter than a breath of air.

or put your hope in stealing.
And if your wealth increases,
don’t make it the center of your life.
