- riches:
- "For¹ richesª [are] not¹ for ever:ª and doth¹ the crownª [endure] to every² generation?ª" {Prv 27:24} + "And there cameª° a messengerª unto¹ Job,ª and said,ª° The oxenª were¹ plowing,ª° and the assesª feedingª° besideª¹ them: ... While he¹ [was] yet¹ speaking,ª° there cameª° also another,¹ and said,ª° The Chaldeansª made¹ out²° threeª bands,ª and fellª° upon¹ the camels,ª and have carried them away,ª° yea, and slainª° the servantsª with the edgeª of the sword;ª and I¹ only¹ am escapedª° alone¹ to tellª° thee." {Job 1:14-17} + "Surely¹ every manª walkethª° in a vain shew:ª surely¹ they are disquietedª° in vain:ª he heapeth upª° [riches], and knowethª° not¹ who¹ shall gatherª° them." {Psa 39:6} + "There isª a soreª° evilª [which] I have seenª° under¹ the sun,ª [namely], richesª keptª° for the ownersª thereof to their hurt.ª ... But those¹ richesª perishª° by evilª travail:ª and he begettethª° a son,ª and [there is] nothingª¹ in his hand.ª" {Ecc 5:13-14} + "Lay²° not² upª°¹ for yourselvesª treasuresª uponª earth,ª whereª mothª andª rustª doth corrupt,ª° andª whereª thievesª break throughª° andª steal:ª°" {Mtt 6:19} + "Chargeª° them that are richª inª this² world,ª¹ that they be²° not² highminded,ª°¹ norª trustª° inª uncertainª riches,ª butª inª the¹ livingª° God,ª who² givethª° usª richlyª all thingsª toª enjoy;ª" {1Tm 6:17} + "Go toª° now,ª [ye] rich men,ª weepª° and howlª° forª yourª miseriesª that shall come uponª° [you]. ... Yourª richesª are corrupted,ª° andª yourª garmentsª areª° motheaten.ª" {Jms 5:1-2}
