²³ Know well the state of your flocks,
    and pay attention to your herds:
²⁴ for riches are not forever,
    nor does the crown endure to all generations.
²⁵ The hay is removed, and the new growth appears,
    the grasses of the hills are gathered in.
²⁶ The lambs are for your clothing,
    and the goats are the price of a field.
²⁷ There will be plenty of goats’ milk for your food,
    for your family’s food,
    and for the nourishment of your servant girls.
