TSK · Proverbs 11:28
Treasury of Scripture Knowledge references in NET.
They trust in their wealth and boast in their great riches.
Do not trust in what you can gain by oppression! Do not put false confidence in what you can gain by robbery! If wealth increases, do not become attached to it!
The wealth of a rich person is like a fortified city, but the poor are brought to ruin by their poverty.
They will be like a tree planted near a stream whose roots spread out toward the water. It has nothing to fear when the heat comes. Its leaves are always green. It has no need to be concerned in a year of drought. It does not stop bearing fruit.
But God said to him,‘You fool! This very night your life will be demanded back from you, but who will get what you have prepared for yourself?’
