Proverbs 27:23-27

Common English Bible

²³ Know your flock well;
    pay attention to your herds,
²⁴         for no treasure lasts forever,
        nor a crown generation after generation.
²⁵ When the grass goes away, new growth appears,
    and the plants of the hills are gathered,
²⁶         then the lambs will provide your clothes,
        and the goats will be the price of your fields.
²⁷ There will be enough goat’s milk for your food,
    for the food of your house,
    and to nourish your young women.
