rich rule over the poor, and the borrower is servant to the lender.
Proverbs 23:4-5 - Do not
wear yourself out to get rich; have the wisdom to show restraint. Cast but a
glance at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly
off to the sky like an eagle.
Proverbs 30:8-9 - Keep
falsehood and lies far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches, but give me
only my daily bread. Otherwise, I may have too much and disown you and say, Who
is the LORD? Or I may become poor and steal, and so dishonor the name of my
God.
Proverbs 3:9-10 - “ Honor
the LORD with your wealth, with the first-fruits of all your crops; then
your barns will be filled to overflowing, and your vats will brim over with new
wine.
Proverbs 11:24-25 - One man
gives freely, yet gains even more; another withholds unduly, but comes to
poverty. A generous man will prosper; he who refreshes others will himself be
refreshed.
