- the riches:
- "[As] the partridgeª sittethª° [on eggs], and hatchethª° [them] not;¹ [so] he that gettethª° riches,ª and not¹ by right,ª shall leaveª° them in the midstª of his days,ª and at his endª shall be¹ a fool.ª" {Jer 17:11} + "Richesª profitª° not¹ in the dayª of wrath:ª but righteousnessª deliverethª° from death.ª¹" {Prv 11:4} + "A goodª [man] leaveth an inheritanceª° to his children'sª children:ª and the wealthª of the sinnerª° [is] laid upª° for the just.ª" {Prv 13:22} + "The rich man'sª wealthª [is] his strongª city,ª and as an highª° wallª in his own conceit.ª" {Prv 18:11} + "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} + "Therefore¹¹ the abundanceª they have gotten,ª° and that which they have laid up,ª shall they carry awayª° to¹ the brookª of the willows.ª" {Isa 15:7} + "Butª Godª saidª° unto him,ª [Thou] fool,ª thisª nightª thyª soulª shall be requiredª° ofª thee:ª thenª whoseª shall those things¹ be,ª° which² thou hast provided?ª° ... Soª [is] he¹ that layeth up treasureª° for himself,ª andª is²° not² richª°¹ towardª God.ª" {Lke 12:20-21} + "Yourª richesª are corrupted,ª° andª yourª garmentsª areª° motheaten.ª ... Yourª goldª andª silverª is cankered;ª° andª the¹ rustª of themª shall beª° a¹ witnessª against² you,ª andª shall eatª° yourª fleshª as it wereª fire.ª Ye have heaped treasure togetherª° forª the lastª days.ª" {Jms 5:2-3}
