Psalms 62:10 - Matthew Poole's English Annotations on the Holy Bible

Bible Comments

Trust not in oppression; as you may not trust any other men, so neither must you trust to yourselves, nor to your own wit, or industry, or courage, by which you may oppress others, and so think to secure and enrich yourselves. Become not vain; lifting up and feeding yourselves with vain hopes, and expectations of safety and felicity, from those riches which you take from others by robbery or violence. Set not your heart upon them; so as to please yourselves immoderately in them, to place your hope, and trust, and chief joy in them, or to grow proud and insolent because of them.

Psalms 62:10

10 Trust not in oppression, and become not vain in robbery: if riches increase, set not your heart upon them.
