Wisdom and money can get you almost anything, but only wisdom can save your life.

But God will strike you down once and for all. He will pull you from your home and uproot you from the land of the living. InterludeThe righteous will see it and be amazed. They will laugh and say,“ Look what happens to mighty warriors who do not trust in God. They trust their wealth instead and grow more and more bold in their wickedness.”

They trust in their wealth and boast of great riches.Yet they cannot redeem themselves from death by paying a ransom to God.Redemption does not come so easily, for no one can ever pay enoughto live forever and never see the grave.

Riches won’t help on the day of judgment, but right living can save you from death.

And I’ll sit back and say to myself,“ My friend, you have enough stored away for years to come. Now take it easy! Eat, drink, and be merry!”’“ But God said to him,‘ You fool! You will die this very night. Then who will get everything you worked for?’“ Yes, a person is a fool to store up earthly wealth but not have a rich relationship with God.”

But the rock of our enemies is not like our Rock, as even they recognize.

Don’t make your living by extortion or put your hope in stealing. And if your wealth increases, don’t make it the center of your life.God has spoken plainly, and I have heard it many times: Power, O God, belongs to you;

“ Have I put my trust in money or felt secure because of my gold?Have I gloated about my wealth and all that I own?
