DEU 6:10 And it shall be, when the LORD thy God shall have brought thee into the land which he sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob, to give thee great and goodly cities, which thou buildedst not,
DEU 6:11 And houses full of all good things, which thou filledst not, and wells digged, which thou diggedst not, vineyards and olive trees, which thou plantedst not; when thou shalt have eaten and be full;
DEU 6:12 Then beware lest thou forget the LORD, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage.
DEU 8:10 When thou hast eaten and art full, then thou shalt bless the LORD thy God for the good land which he hath given thee.
DEU 8:11 Beware that thou forget not the LORD thy God, in not keeping his commandments, and his judgments, and his statutes, which I command thee this day:
DEU 8:12 Lest when thou hast eaten and art full, and hast built goodly houses, and dwelt therein;
DEU 8:13 And when thy herds and thy flocks multiply, and thy silver and thy gold is multiplied, and all that thou hast is multiplied;
DEU 8:14 Then thine heart be lifted up, and thou forget the LORD thy God, which brought thee forth out of the land of Egypt, from the house of bondage;
DEU 8:15 Who led thee through that great and terrible wilderness, wherein were fiery serpents, and scorpions, and drought, where there was no water; who brought thee forth water out of the rock of flint;
DEU 8:16 Who fed thee in the wilderness with manna, which thy fathers knew not, that he might humble thee, and that he might prove thee, to do thee good at thy latter end;
DEU 8:17 And thou say in thine heart, My power and the might of mine hand hath gotten me this wealth.
DEU 8:18 But thou shalt remember the LORD thy God: for it is he that giveth thee power to get wealth, that he may establish his covenant which he sware unto thy fathers, as it is this day.
DEU 31:20 For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxen fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and provoke me, and break my covenant.

1KI 10:23 So king Solomon exceeded all the kings of the earth for riches and for wisdom.
2KI 20:12 At that time Berodachbaladan, the son of Baladan, king of Babylon, sent letters and a present unto Hezekiah: for he had heard that Hezekiah had been sick.
2KI 20:13 And Hezekiah hearkened unto them, and shewed them all the house of his precious things, the silver, and the gold, and the spices, and the precious ointment, and all the house of his armour, and all that was found in his treasures: there was nothing in his house, nor in all his dominion, that Hezekiah shewed them not.
2KI 20:14 Then came Isaiah the prophet unto king Hezekiah, and said unto him, What said these men? and from whence came they unto thee? And Hezekiah said, They are come from a far country, even from Babylon.
2KI 20:15 And he said, What have they seen in thine house? And Hezekiah answered, All the things that are in mine house have they seen: there is nothing among my treasures that I have not shewed them.
2KI 20:16 And Isaiah said unto Hezekiah, Hear the word of the LORD.
2KI 20:17 Behold, the days come, that all that is in thine house, and that which thy fathers have laid up in store unto this day, shall be carried into Babylon: nothing shall be left, saith the LORD.

NEH 5:1 And there was a great cry of the people and of their wives against their brethren the Jews.
NEH 5:2 For there were that said, We, our sons, and our daughters, are many: therefore we take up corn for them, that we may eat, and live.
NEH 5:3 Some also there were that said, We have mortgaged our lands, vineyards, and houses, that we might buy corn, because of the dearth.
NEH 5:4 There were also that said, We have borrowed money for the king’s tribute, and that upon our lands and vineyards.
NEH 5:5 Yet now our flesh is as the flesh of our brethren, our children as their children: and, lo, we bring into bondage our sons and our daughters to be servants, and some of our daughters are brought unto bondage already: neither is it in our power to redeem them; for other men have our lands and vineyards.
NEH 5:6 And I was very angry when I heard their cry and these words.
NEH 5:7 Then I consulted with myself, and I rebuked the nobles, and the rulers, and said unto them, Ye exact usury, every one of his brother. And I set a great assembly against them.
NEH 5:8 And I said unto them, We after our ability have redeemed our brethren the Jews, which were sold unto the heathen; and will ye even sell your brethren? or shall they be sold unto us? Then held they their peace, and found nothing to answer.
NEH 5:9 Also I said, It is not good that ye do: ought ye not to walk in the fear of our God because of the reproach of the heathen our enemies?
NEH 5:10 I likewise, and my brethren, and my servants, might exact of them money and corn: I pray you, let us leave off this usury.
NEH 5:11 Restore, I pray you, to them, even this day, their lands, their vineyards, their oliveyards, and their houses, also the hundredth part of the money, and of the corn, the wine, and the oil, that ye exact of them.
NEH 5:12 Then said they, We will restore them, and will require nothing of them; so will we do as thou sayest. Then I called the priests, and took an oath of them, that they should do according to this promise.
NEH 5:13 Also I shook my lap, and said, So God shake out every man from his house, and from his labour, that performeth not this promise, even thus be he shaken out, and emptied. And all the congregation said, Amen, and praised the LORD. And the people did according to this promise.

PSA 37:16 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.
PSA 49:16 Be not thou afraid when one is made rich, when the glory of his house is increased;
PSA 49:17 For when he dieth he shall carry nothing away: his glory shall not descend after him.
PSA 49:18 Though while he lived he blessed his soul: and men will praise thee, when thou doest well to thyself.
PSA 52:1 Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually.
PSA 52:2 The tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
PSA 52:3 Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.
PSA 52:4 Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
PSA 52:5 God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.
PSA 52:6 The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
PSA 52:7 Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
PSA 73:3 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
PSA 73:4 For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
PSA 73:5 They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
PSA 73:6 Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
PSA 73:7 Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
PSA 73:8 They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
PSA 73:9 They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
PSA 73:10 Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
PSA 73:11 And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
PSA 73:12 Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
PSA 73:13 Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
PSA 73:14 For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
PSA 73:15 If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
PSA 73:16 When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
PSA 73:17 Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
PSA 73:18 Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
PSA 73:19 How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
PSA 73:20 As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
PSA 73:21 Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
PSA 73:22 So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.

ECC 5:18 Behold that which I have seen: it is good and comely for one to eat and to drink, and to enjoy the good of all his labour that he taketh under the sun all the days of his life, which God giveth him: for it is his portion.
ECC 5:19 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.

AMO 6:3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
AMO 6:4 That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;

MAT 19:17 And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none good but one, that is, God: but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the commandments.
MAT 19:18 He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness,
MAT 19:19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

MAT 19:26 But Jesus beheld them, and said unto them, With men this is impossible; but with God all things are possible.

MAR 10:20 And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I observed from my youth.
MAR 10:21 Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing thou lackest: go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, take up the cross, and follow me.
MAR 10:22 And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved: for he had great possessions.
MAR 10:23 And Jesus looked round about, and saith unto his disciples, How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom of God!

MAR 10:25 It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God.
MAR 10:26 And they were astonished out of measure, saying among themselves, Who then can be saved?
MAR 10:27 And Jesus looking upon them saith, With men it is impossible, but not with God: for with God all things are possible.
LUK 6:24 But woe unto you that are rich! for ye have received your consolation.
LUK 12:15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man’s life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
LUK 12:16 And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:
LUK 12:17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?
LUK 12:18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.
LUK 12:19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.
LUK 12:20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
LUK 12:21 So is he that layeth up treasure for himself, and is not rich toward God.
LUK 16:13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.
LUK 16:14 And the Pharisees also, who were covetous, heard all these things: and they derided him.
LUK 16:20 And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores,
LUK 16:21 And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man’s table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores.
LUK 16:22 And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham’s bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried;
LUK 16:23 And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom.
LUK 16:24 And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame.
LUK 16:25 But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented.
LUK 16:26 And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence.
LUK 19:2 And, behold, there was a man named Zacchaeus, which was the chief among the publicans, and he was rich.
1TI 6:4 He is proud, knowing nothing, but doting about questions and strifes of words, whereof cometh envy, strife, railings, evil surmisings,
1TI 6:5 Perverse disputings of men of corrupt minds, and destitute of the truth, supposing that gain is godliness: from such withdraw thyself.
1TI 6:6 But godliness with contentment is great gain.
1TI 6:7 For we brought nothing into this world, and it is certain we can carry nothing out.
1TI 6:8 And having food and raiment let us be therewith content.
1TI 6:9 But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in destruction and perdition.
1TI 6:10 For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
1TI 6:11 But thou, O man of God, flee these things; and follow after righteousness, godliness, faith, love, patience, meekness.
1TI 6:17 Charge them that are rich in this world, that they be not highminded, nor trust in uncertain riches, but in the living God, who giveth us richly all things to enjoy;
1TI 6:18 That they do good, that they be rich in good works, ready to distribute, willing to communicate;
1TI 6:19 Laying up in store for themselves a good foundation against the time to come, that they may lay hold on eternal life.
JAM 1:9 Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted:
JAM 1:10 But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.
JAM 1:11 For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withereth the grass, and the flower thereof falleth, and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
JAM 2:6 But ye have despised the poor. Do not rich men oppress you, and draw you before the judgment seats?
JAM 2:7 Do not they blaspheme that worthy name by the which ye are called?
JAM 5:1 Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you.
JAM 5:2 Your riches are corrupted, and your garments are motheaten.
JAM 5:3 Your gold and silver is cankered; and the rust of them shall be a witness against you, and shall eat your flesh as it were fire. Ye have heaped treasure together for the last days.
JAM 5:4 Behold, the hire of the labourers who have reaped down your fields, which is of you kept back by fraud, crieth: and the cries of them which have reaped are entered into the ears of the Lord of sabaoth.
JAM 5:5 Ye have lived in pleasure on the earth, and been wanton; ye have nourished your hearts, as in a day of slaughter.
1JO 3:17 But whoso hath this world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and shutteth up his bowels of compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
