Sirach 31:4-6
Common English Bible

4 Poor people have worked
to eke out a living,
    and when they rest,
    they become needy again.

5 Whoever loves gold won’t be declared just,
    and whoever pursues profits
    will be led astray by them.
6 Many have been ruined because of gold,
    and their destruction has met them head-on.[a]
