10 For the love of money is {the} root of every evil; which some having aspired after, have wandered from the faith, and pierced themselves with many sorrows.

9 But those who desire to be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and many unwise and hurtful lusts, which plunge men into destruction and ruin.

24 No one can serve two masters; for either he will hate the one and will love the other, or he will hold to the one and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

5 Put to death therefore your members which {are} upon the earth, fornication, uncleanness, vile passions, evil lust, and unbridled desire, which is idolatry.

15 And he said to them, Take heed and keep yourselves from all covetousness, for {it is} not because a man is in abundance {that} his life is in his possessions.

19 Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon the earth, where moth and rust spoils, and where thieves dig through and steal;20 but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust spoils, and where thieves do not dig through nor steal;

11 Wealth {gotten} by vanity diminisheth; but he that gathereth by manual-labour shall increase {it}.

10 He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver, nor he that loveth abundance with increase. This also is vanity.

15 As he came forth from his mother's womb, naked shall he go away again as he came, and shall take nothing of his labour, which he may carry away in his hand.

26 He coveteth greedily all the day long; but the righteous giveth and spareth not.

6 For on this account ye pay tribute also; for they are God's officers, attending continually on this very thing.

36 Incline my heart unto thy testimonies, and not to gain.
