15 And he said to them: Take heed and beware of all covetousness; for a man's life doth not consist in the abundance of things which he possesseth.
5 Lift not up thy eyes to riches which thou canst not have: because they shall make themselves wings like those of an eagle, and shall fly towards heaven.
14 Who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to promise thee all these things? all things are thine: and we have given thee what we received of thy hand.
4 Labour not to be rich: but set bounds to thy prudence.
21 For where thy treasure is, there is thy heart also.
21 His lord said to him: Well done, good and faithful servant, because thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will place thee over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord.
4 Riches shall not profit in the day of revenge: but justice shall deliver from death.
16 Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, than great treasures without content,
9 For they that will become rich, fall into temptation, and into the snare of the devil, and into many unprofitable and hurtful desires, which drown men into destruction and perdition.
11 The substance of the rich man is the city of his strength, and as a strong wall compassing him about.
10 Where there are great riches, there are also many to eat them. And what doth it profit the owner, but that he seeth the riches with his eyes?
9 Honour the Lord with thy substance, and give him of the first of all thy fruits :
17 Charge the rich of this world not to be highminded, nor to trust in the uncertainty of riches, but in the living God, (who giveth us abundantly all things to enjoy,)
22 The blessing of the Lord maketh men rich: neither shall affliction be joined to them.
1 A good name is better than great riches: and good favour is above silver and gold.
22 A needy man is merciful: and better is the poor than the lying man.
16 Get wisdom, because it is better than gold: and purchase prudence, for it is more precious than silver.
6 For therefore also you pay tribute. For they are the ministers of God, serving unto this purpose.
7 Render therefore to all men their dues. Tribute, to whom tribute is due: custom, to whom custom: fear, to whom fear: honour, to whom honour.
2 Treasures of wickedness shall profit nothing: but justice shall deliver from death.
11 Substance got in haste shall be diminished: but that which by little and little is gathered with the hand shall increase.
5 Let your manners be without covetousness, contented with such things as you have; for he hath said: I will not leave thee, neither will I forsake thee.
8 Remove far from me vanity, and lying words. Give me neither beggary, nor riches: give me only the necessaries of life:
16 Better is a little to the just, than the great riches of the wicked.
17 For the arms of the wicked shall be broken in pieces; but the Lord strengtheneth the just.
