箴言 13:11
Dishonest money dwindles away, but whoever gathers money little by little makes it grow.
不勞而得之財必然消耗；勤勞積蓄的，必見加增。
箴言 28:19
- 20
Those who work their land will have abundant food, but those who chase fantasies will have their fill of poverty.
A faithful person will be richly blessed, but one eager to get rich will not go unpunished.
耕種自己田地的，必得飽食；追隨虛浮的，足受窮乏。
誠實人必多得福；想要急速發財的，不免受罰。
箴言 24:30
- 34
I went past the field of a sluggard, past the vineyard of someone who has no sense;
thorns had come up everywhere, the ground was covered with weeds, and the stone wall was in ruins.
I applied my heart to what I observed and learned a lesson from what I saw:
A little sleep, a little slumber, a little folding of the hands to rest-
and poverty will come on you like a thief and scarcity like an armed man.
我經過懶惰人的田地、無知人的葡萄園，
荊棘長滿了地皮，刺草遮蓋了田面，石牆也坍塌了。
我看見就留心思想；我看著就領了訓誨。
再睡片時，打盹片時，抱著手躺臥片時，
你的貧窮就必如強盜速來，你的缺乏彷彿拿兵器的人來到。
路加福音 16:10
"Whoever can be trusted with very little can also be trusted with much, and whoever is dishonest with very little will also be dishonest with much.
人在最小的事上忠心，在大事上也忠心；在最小的事上不義，在大事上也不義。
箴言 22:16
One who oppresses the poor to increase his wealth and one who gives gifts to the rich-both come to poverty. Thirty Sayings of the Wise Saying 1
欺壓貧窮為要利己的，並送禮與富戶的，都必缺乏。
提摩太前書 6:10
For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evil. Some people, eager for money, have wandered from the faith and pierced themselves with many griefs.
貪財是萬惡之根。有人貪戀錢財，就被引誘離了真道，用許多愁苦把自己刺透了。
希伯來書 13:5
Keep your lives free from the love of money and be content with what you have, because God has said, "Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you."
你們存心不可貪愛錢財，要以自己所有的為足；因為主曾說：『我總不撇下你，也不丟棄你。』
