Proverbs 28:22

⁶Don’t eat the food of him who has a stingy eye, and don’t crave his delicacies,

⁹But those who are determined to be rich fall into a temptation, a snare, and many foolish and harmful lusts, such as drown men in ruin and destruction.

²⁰A faithful man is rich with blessings; but one who is eager to be rich will not go unpunished.

¹⁵Isn’t it lawful for me to do what I want to with what I own? Or is your eye evil, because I am good?’

¹⁶Though he heap up silver as the dust, and prepare clothing as the clay; ¹⁷he may prepare it, but the just will put it on, and the innocent will divide the silver.

¹⁷It came to pass, when they had taken them out, that he said, “Escape for your life! Don’t look behind you, and don’t stay anywhere in the plain. Escape to the mountains, lest you be consumed!”

¹⁰Lot lifted up his eyes, and saw all the plain of the Jordan, that it was well-watered everywhere, before the LORD destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah, like the garden of the LORD, like the land of Egypt, as you go to Zoar. ¹¹So Lot chose the Plain of the Jordan for himself. Lot traveled east, and they separated themselves from one another. ¹²Abram lived in the land of Canaan, and Lot lived in the cities of the plain, and moved his tent as far as Sodom. ¹³Now the men of Sodom were exceedingly wicked and sinners against the LORD.

¹⁸He will restore that for which he labored, and will not swallow it down. He will not rejoice according to the substance that he has gotten. ¹⁹For he has oppressed and forsaken the poor. He has violently taken away a house, and he will not build it up. ²⁰“Because he knew no quietness within him, he will not save anything of that in which he delights. ²¹There was nothing left that he didn’t devour, therefore his prosperity will not endure. ²²In the fullness of his sufficiency, distress will overtake him. The hand of everyone who is in misery will come on him.
