The crown of the wise is their riches: But the folly of fools is only folly.
He hath dispersed, he hath given to the needy; His righteousness endureth for ever: His horn shall be exalted with honour.
The blessing of the LORD, it maketh rich, And he addeth no sorrow therewith.
The ransom of a man's life is his riches: But the poor heareth no threatening.
In all labour there is profit: But the talk of the lips tendeth only to penury.
There is precious treasure and oil in the dwelling of the wise; But a foolish man swalloweth it up.
Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar with a pestle among bruised corn, Yet will not his foolishness depart from him.
And there shall be stability in thy times, abundance of salvation, wisdom and knowledge: the fear of the LORD is his treasure.
And I say unto you, Make to yourselves friends by means of the mammon of unrighteousness; that, when it shall fail, they may receive you into the eternal tabernacles.
