TSK · Ecclesiastes 5:13

¶ And Lot also, which went with Abram, had flocks, and herds, and tents.

And Lot went out, and spake unto his sons in law, which married his daughters, and said, Up, get you out of this place; for the LORD will destroy this city. But he seemed as one that mocked unto his sons in law.

And the firstborn said unto the younger, Our father [is] old, and [there is] not a man in the earth to come in unto us after the manner of all the earth:

So [are] the ways of every one that is greedy of gain; [which] taketh away the life of the owners thereof.

¶ Riches profit not in the day of wrath: but righteousness delivereth from death.

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

There is one [alone], and [there is] not a second; yea, he hath neither child nor brother: yet [is there] no end of all his labour; neither is his eye satisfied with riches; neither [saith he], For whom do I labour, and bereave my soul of good? This [is] also vanity, yea, it [is] a sore travail.

¶ All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun: [there is] a time wherein one man ruleth over another to his own hurt.

For the vile person will speak villany, and his heart will work iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and to utter error against the LORD, to make empty the soul of the hungry, and he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.

And he spake a parable unto them, saying, ‹The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:›

¶ ‹There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day:›

Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, ‹Yet lackest thou one thing: sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me.›

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.

¶ Go to now, [ye] rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon [you].
