Thematic Bible: The accumulation of, disappointing
Thematic Bible
Accumulation of wealth » The accumulation of, disappointing
Though he piles up silver like dust and heaps up a wardrobe like clay- he may heap [it] up, but the righteous will wear [it], and the innocent will divide up his silver.
Indeed, they frantically rush around in vain,
gathering possessions
without knowing who will get them.
For to the man who is pleasing in His sight, He gives wisdom, knowledge, and joy, but to the sinner He gives the task of gathering and accumulating in order to give to the one who is pleasing in God’s sight. This too is futile and a pursuit of the wind.
you have acquired wealth for yourself.
You have acquired gold and silver
for your treasuries.
Your silver and gold are corroded, and their corrosion will be a witness against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You stored up treasure in the last days!
