Bible Verses about 'Vanity'

He who loves silver shall not be satisfied with silver, nor he who loves abundance, with increase. This also is vanity.One who is covetous will never be satisfied with money, nor will the lover of wealth be content with gain. This too is vanity.
Therefore remove sorrow from your heart, and put away evil from your flesh; for youth and the dawn of life are vanity.Banish grief from your heart and ignore the sufferings of your body, for youth and the prime of life are fleeting.
Then I saw all the labor and achievement that is the envy of a man’s neighbor. This also is vanity and a striving after wind.Then I came to realize that all toil and skill in work derive from one person’s envy of another. This also is vanity and a chase after the wind.
For the customs of the peoples are vanity; for one cuts a tree out of the forest, the work of the hands of the workman with the ax. They deck it with silver and with gold. They fasten it with nails and with hammers, so that it can’t move. They are like a palm tree, of turned work, and don’t speak. They must be carried, because they can’t move. Don’t be afraid of them; for they can’t do evil, neither is it in them to do good.For the carved images of the nations are powerless; they are nothing more than wood cut from a forest, fashioned with a knife by craftsmen and embellished with silver and gold. Then they are fastened with hammers and nails to prevent them from toppling. Like scarecrows in a cucumber field they are unable to speak, and they must be carried from place to place since they cannot walk. Do not be afraid of them, for they can do no harm, nor do they have any power to do good.
Wealth gained dishonestly dwindles away, but he who gathers by hand makes it grow.Wealth hastily acquired will dwindle away, but when amassed little by little, it will increase.
Doing nothing through rivalry or through conceit, but in humility, each counting others better than himself.Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vanity, but humbly regard others as better than yourselves.
Remove far from me falsehood and lies. Give me neither poverty nor riches. Feed me with the food that is needful for me.Keep falsehood and lying far from me; give me neither poverty nor riches, but simply provide me with the food that I need.

Bible verse of the day

Be of the same mind one toward another. Don’t set your mind on high things, but associate with the humble. Don’t be wise in your own conceits.
