Job 27:16-17

16 Though he ^aheap up silver like dust,
and pile up clothing like clay,
17 he may pile it up, but the righteous will wear it,
and ^bthe innocent will divide the silver.

Psalms 49:10-11

10 For he sees ^cthat even the wise die;
^dthe fool and the stupid alike must perish
and ^eleave their wealth to others.
11 Their ^fgraves are their homes forever, ^{▼▼Septuagint, Syriac, Targum; Hebrew Their inward thought was that their homes were forever}
their dwelling places ^hto all generations,
though they ⁱcalled lands by their own names.

Proverbs 13:22

22 ^jA good man leaves an inheritance to his children’s children,
but ^kthe sinner’s wealth is laid up for the righteous.

Proverbs 23:5

5 When your eyes light on it, it is gone,
^lfor suddenly it sprouts wings,
flying like an eagle toward heaven.

Proverbs 27:24

24 for ^mriches do not last forever;
and does a crown endure to all generations?

Ecclesiastes 2:8

8 I also gathered for myself silver and ⁿgold and the treasure of ^okings and ^pprovinces. I got ^qsingers, both men and women, and many ^rconcubines, ^{▼▼The meaning of the Hebrew word is uncertain} the delight of the sons of man.

Ecclesiastes 2:18-21

The Vanity of Toil

18 I hated ^tall my toil in which I toil under the sun, seeing that I must ^uleave it to the man who will come after me, 19 and who knows whether he will be wise or a fool? Yet he will be master of all for which I toiled and used my wisdom under the sun. This also is vanity. 20 So I ^vturned about and gave my heart up to despair ^wover all the toil of my labors under the sun, 21 because sometimes a person who has toiled with wisdom and knowledge and skill must leave everything to be enjoyed by someone who did not toil for it. This also is vanity and a great evil.

Ecclesiastes 2:26

26 For to the one who pleases him ^xGod has given wisdom and knowledge and joy, but to the sinner he has given ^ythe business of gathering and collecting, ^zonly to give to one who pleases God. ^aaThis also is vanity and a striving after wind.
