⁴ Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.

²⁰ A faithful man shall abound with blessings: but he that maketh haste to be rich shall not be innocent.

⁵ Trust in the LORD with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

⁵ Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

⁸ And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.

⁹ But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.

¹⁰ For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.

¹⁶ Be of the same mind one toward another. Mind not high things, but condescend to men of low estate. Be not wise in your own conceits.

²⁷ Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

²¹ Woe unto them that are wise in their own eyes, and prudent in their own sight!

¹² Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him.

²⁵ For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

¹⁹ Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:

²⁷ He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; but he that hateth gifts shall live.

⁷ Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the LORD, and depart from evil.
