| The rich man’s wealth is his strong city, And like a high wall in his own esteem. | The rich man's wealth is his strong city, and as an high wall in his own conceit. |
| Wealth gained by dishonesty will be diminished, But he who gathers by labor will increase. | Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase. |
| As for every man to whom God has given riches and wealth, and given him power to eat of it, to receive his heritage and rejoice in his labor—this is the gift of God. | Every man also to whom God hath given riches and wealth, and hath given him power to eat thereof, and to take his portion, and to rejoice in his labour; this is the gift of God. |
