Proverbs 13:11
“"Wealth hastily gotten will dwindle," etc. Those who want to become rich fall into temptation, and they do not possess those very riches, which they either acquire or desire, forever. But whoever strives justly for the acquisition of the wealth of heavenly rewards will receive the multiple gifts of heavenly blessednes…”
Source: Septuagint
11Wealth gotten hastily with iniquity is diminished: But he that gathers for himself with godliness shall be increased. The righteous is merciful, and lends.

9The righteous always have light: But the light of the ungodly is quenched. a Crafty souls go astray in sins: But just men pity, and are merciful.
10A bad man does evil with insolence: But they that are judges of themselves are wise.
— Proverbs 13:11 —
12Better is he that begins to help heartily, Than he that promises and leads another to hope: For a good desire is a tree of life.
13He that slights a matter shall be slighted of it: But he that fears the commandment has health of soul. a To a crafty son there shall be nothing good: But a wise servant shall have prosperous doings, And his way shall be directed aright.
