Jaa

Do not be hasty to speak, and do not be impulsive to make a speech before God. God is in heaven and you are on earth, so let your words be few.

Furthermore, everyone to whom God has given riches and wealth,  he has also allowed him to enjoy them, take his reward, and rejoice in his labor.  This is a gift of God

The one who loves silver is never satisfied with silver, and whoever loves wealth is never satisfied with income. This too is futile.

Guard your steps when you go to the house of God. Better to approach in obedience than to offer the sacrifice as fools do,  for they ignorantly do wrong.

When you make a vow to God,  don’t delay fulfilling it, because he does not delight in fools. Fulfill what you vow.

Better that you do not vow than that you vow and not fulfill it.

The sleep of the worker is sweet, whether he eats little or much, but the abundance of the rich permits him no sleep.

As he came from his mother’s womb, so he will go again, naked as he came;  he will take nothing for his efforts that he can carry in his hands.
