²⁰ The man who wants to do right will get a rich reward. But the man who wants to get rich quick will quickly fail.

²² Trying to get rich quick is evil and leads to poverty.

²⁵ Greed causes fighting; trusting God leads to prosperity.

⁸ First, help me never to tell a lie. Second, give me neither poverty nor riches! Give me just enough to satisfy my needs! ⁹ For if I grow rich, I may become content without God. And if I am too poor, I may steal and thus insult God’s holy name.
