Berean Standard Bible
“Place no trust in extortion or false hope in stolen goods. If your riches increase, do not set your heart upon them.”
Psalm 62 is David's quiet song of trust, in which the soul waits in silence for God alone. After describing God as rock and salvation, the psalm turns to warn people against false supports such as oppression and wealth.
