Certainly every person walks around as a fleeting shadow; They certainly make an uproar for nothing; He amasses riches and does not know who will gather them.

The Foolishness of Trusting in Riches.

For the music director. A Psalm of the sons of Korah.

Hear this, all peoples; Listen, all inhabitants of the world,

Those who trust in their wealth And boast in the abundance of their riches?

“Behold, the man who would not make God his refuge, But trusted in the abundance of his riches And was strong in his evil desire.”

Wealth and riches are in his house, And his righteousness endures forever.

I have rejoiced in the way of Your testimonies, As much as in all riches.
