Ecclesiastes 5:10-16

¹⁰Anyone who loves silver will not be satisfied with silver, and anyone who loves wealth always wants more. This, too, is vapor.

¹¹As prosperity increases, so also do the people who consume it. What advantage in wealth is there to the owner except to watch it with his eyes?

¹²The sleep of a working man is sweet, whether he eats little or a lot, but the wealth of a rich person does not allow him to sleep well.

¹³There is an evil that I have seen under the sun: riches hoarded by the owner, resulting in his own misery.

¹⁴When the rich man loses his wealth through bad luck, his own son, one whom he has fathered, is left with nothing in his hands.

¹⁵As a man comes from his mother's womb, so also he will leave naked. He can take none of the fruits of his labor in his hand.

¹⁶Another evil is that as a person comes, so he goes away. So what profit is there for him who works for the wind?
