當諭此世之富者、心勿驕傲、勿恃無定之財、惟恃永生天主、厚賜我眾百物以享之、

圖富有者陷誘惑、罹網羅、墮無理有害之慾中即溺人於沈淪及滅亡者也、貪利為萬惡之根、有人慕之、則迷失於道、以多苦自刺、

而斯世之思慮、貨財之迷惑、及諸物慾、入而蔽其道、則不結實、

有遺荊棘中者、荊棘同長而蔽之、

一人不能事二主、或惡此愛彼、或重此輕彼、爾曹不能事天主、又事瑪們、瑪們譯即財利之義故我告爾、勿為生命憂慮何以食、何以飲、勿為身體憂慮何以衣、生命不重於糧乎、身體不重於衣乎、

播於荊棘中者、指人聽道、而此世之思慮、及貨財之迷惑、蔽其道則不結實、

一人不能事二主、或惡此愛彼、或重此輕彼、爾不能事天主、亦事瑪門、瑪門即財利之義
