Proverbs 10:3
New King James Version
3 (A)The Lord will not allow the righteous soul to famish,
But He casts away the desire of the wicked.
Matthew 6:30-33
New King James Version
30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?
31 “Therefore do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For after all these things the Gentiles seek. For your heavenly Father knows that you need all these things. 33 But (A)seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

6 “Will not all these (A)take up a proverb against him,

‘Woe to him who increases
What is not his—how long?

Will they not awaken who oppress you?
And you will become their booty.

All the remnant of the people shall plunder you,
Because of men’s [c]blood
And the violence of the land and the city,
And of all who dwell in it.
