23 (A)Know well the [a]condition of your flocks,
And pay attention to your herds;
24 For wealth is not forever,
Neither is a (B)crown from generation to generation.
25 When the grass disappears and the vegetation appears,
And the herbs of the mountains are (C)gathered in,
26 The lambs will be for your clothing,
And the goats will bring the price of a field,
27 And there will be enough goats’ milk for your food,
For the food of your household,
And sustenance for your maidens.

23 (A)Know well the [a]condition of your flocks,
And pay attention to your herds;
24 For riches are not forever,
Nor does a (B)crown endure to all generations.
25 When the grass disappears, the new growth is seen,
And the herbs of the mountains are (C)gathered in,
26 The lambs will be for your clothing,
And the goats will bring the price of a field,
27 And there will be goats’ milk enough for your food,
For the food of your household,
And sustenance for your maidens.
