勿惟暴虐是恃、勿因刦奪而驕、貨財增益、勿繫念兮、

爾即財貨豐饒、勿以為樂、況虐人奪人、更不可以此浮財自恃、

勒索之貨不可倚賴、劫奪之財不可妄恃、貨財雖然加多、莫以為念、

貧富貴賤皆泡影。泡影為重人生輕。若衡二者天平上。人生應升泡影沈。

“ Behold, this is the man who didn’t make God his strength, but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.”

Charge those who are rich in this present world that they not be arrogant, nor have their hope set on the uncertainty of riches, but on the living God, who richly provides us with everything to enjoy;

He said to them,“ Beware! Keep yourselves from covetousness, for a man’s life doesn’t consist of the abundance of the things which he possesses.”He spoke a parable to them, saying,“ The ground of a certain rich man produced abundantly.He reasoned within himself, saying,‘ What will I do, because I don’t have room to store my crops?’He said,‘ This is what I will do. I will pull down my barns, build bigger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods.I will tell my soul,“ Soul, you have many goods laid up for many years. Take your ease, eat, drink, and be merry.”’“ But God said to him,‘ You foolish one, tonight your soul is required of you. The things which you have prepared— whose will they be?’So is he who lays up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.”

“ If I have made gold my hope, and have said to the fine gold,‘ You are my confidence;’If I have rejoiced because my wealth was great, and because my hand had gotten much;

As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right. In the middle of his days, they will leave him. At his end, he will be a fool.

Those who trust in their wealth, and boast in the multitude of their riches—

Therefore the Holy One of Israel says,“ Because you despise this word, and trust in oppression and perverseness, and rely on it,

It shall be, when Yahweh your God brings you into the land which he swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give you, great and goodly cities which you didn’t build,and houses full of all good things which you didn’t fill, and cisterns dug out which you didn’t dig, vineyards and olive trees which you didn’t plant, and you shall eat and be full;then beware lest you forget Yahweh, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

“ Surely every man walks like a shadow. Surely they busy themselves in vain. He heaps up, and doesn’t know who shall gather.

“ Because he has set his love on me, therefore I will deliver him. I will set him on high, because he has known my name.

For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some have been led astray from the faith in their greed, and have pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

“ For I, Yahweh, love justice. I hate robbery and iniquity. I will give them their reward in truth and I will make an everlasting covenant with them.

For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor. He has violently taken away a house, and he will not build it up.

Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare clothing as the clay;he may prepare it, but the just will put it on, and the innocent will divide the silver.He builds his house as the moth, as a booth which the watchman makes.He lies down rich, but he will not do so again. He opens his eyes, and he is not.Terrors overtake him like waters. A storm steals him away in the night.The east wind carries him away, and he departs. It sweeps him out of his place.For it hurls at him, and does not spare, as he flees away from his hand.Men will clap their hands at him, and will hiss him out of his place.

lest, when you have eaten and are full, and have built fine houses and lived in them;and when your herds and your flocks multiply, and your silver and your gold is multiplied, and all that you have is multiplied;then your heart might be lifted up, and you forget Yahweh your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage;

Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky.

No one sues in righteousness, and no one pleads in truth. They trust in vanity, and speak lies. They conceive mischief, and give birth to iniquity.

For you have trusted in your wickedness. You have said,‘ No one sees me.’ Your wisdom and your knowledge has perverted you. You have said in your heart,‘ I am, and there is no one else besides me.’

“ Because you have said,‘ We have made a covenant with death, and we are in agreement with Sheol. When the overflowing scourge passes through, it won’t come to us; for we have made lies our refuge, and we have hidden ourselves under falsehood.’”

This is the portion of a wicked man from God, the heritage appointed to him by God.”

This is your lot, the portion measured to you from me,” says Yahweh,“ because you have forgotten me, and trusted in falsehood.”

Jesus looked around, and said to his disciples,“ How difficult it is for those who have riches to enter into God’s Kingdom!”

For what does it profit a man, to gain the whole world, and forfeit his life?For what will a man give in exchange for his life?
