Ecclesiastes 5:10-14
The one who loves money is never satisfied with money, and whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with income. This too is futile.When good things increase, the ones who consume them multiply; what, then, is the profit to the owner, except to gaze at them with his eyes?The sleep of the worker is sweet, whether he eats little or much, but the abundance of the rich permits him no sleep.There is a sickening tragedy I have seen under the sun: wealth kept by its owner to his harm.That wealth was lost in a bad venture, so when he fathered a son, he was empty-handed.

Job 20:19-23
For he oppressed and abandoned the poor; he seized a house he did not build.Because his appetite is never satisfied, he does not let anything he desires escape.Nothing is left for him to consume; therefore, his prosperity will not last.At the height of his success distress will come to him; the full weight of misery will crush him.When he fills his stomach, God will send His burning anger against him, raining it down on him while he is eating.

Come now, you rich people! Weep and wail over the miseries that are coming on you.Your wealth is ruined and your clothes are moth-eaten.Your silver and gold are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You stored up treasure in the last days!
