NET Bible
"Men are nothing but a mere breath; human beings are unreliable. When they are weighed in the scales, all of them together are lighter than air."
— Psalms 62:9, NET Bible
“Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity.”
“Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: In the balances they will go up; They are together lighter than vanity. ”
“Surely men of low degree are just a breath, and men of high degree are a lie. In the balances they will go up. They are together lighter than a breath.”
“My soul hath stuck close to thee: thy right hand hath received me.”
“Truly men of low birth are nothing, and men of high position are not what they seem; if they are put in the scales together they are less than a breath.”
“Surely men of low degree are vanity, and men of high degree are a lie: to be laid in the balance, they are altogether lighter than vanity.”
He alone is my protector and deliverer. He is my refuge; I will not be shaken.
God delivers me and exalts me; God is my strong protector and my shelter.
Trust in him at all times, you people! Pour out your hearts before him! God is our shelter!(Selah)
Men are nothing but a mere breath; human beings are unreliable. When they are weighed in the scales, all of them together are lighter than air.
Do not trust in what you can gain by oppression! Do not put false confidence in what you can gain by robbery! If wealth increases, do not become attached to it!
God has declared one principle; two principles I have heard: God is strong,
and you, O Lord, demonstrate loyal love. For you repay men for what they do.
