- Godliness produces great gain, but only to those who are content.
- For we brought nothing into this world, and we can take nothing out. If we have food and clothing, let us be content with these.
- Do not succumb to the love of money, but be content with what you have, for God has said, “I will never forsake you or abandon you.”
- One who is covetous will never be satisfied with money,
nor will the lover of wealth be content with gain.
This too is vanity. - When riches increase,
so do those who are eager to accumulate them,

simply to feast their eyes on them. - For this reason, I rejoice when I endure weaknesses, insults, hardships, persecutions, and distress for the sake of Christ. For it is when I am weak that I am strong.
- The lips of a fool cause strife,
and his mouth provokes a flogging. - Moreover, the one to whom God grants wealth and possessions and the ability to enjoy them and to find contentment in his toil receives a gift from God.
- I know how to live with little, and I know how to live with plenty. In any and all circumstances, I have learned the secret of being well fed and of going hungry, of having plenty and of being in need.
- An ignorant man causes strife by his insolence,
but wisdom is found with those who take advice. - Now the works of the flesh are obvious: fornication, impurity, licentiousness, idolatry, sorcery, enmities, strife, jealousy, anger, quarrels, dissensions, factions, envy, drunkenness, carousing, and the like. I warn you, as I warned you previously, that no one who does such things will inherit the kingdom of God.
