In this way God has snatched away your father's livestock and given them to me.

Jacob heard that Laban's sons were complaining, "Jacob has taken everything that belonged to our father! He has gotten rich at our father's expense!"

Surely all the wealth that God snatched away from our father belongs to us and to our children. So now do everything God has told you."

On that same day King Ahasuerus gave the estate of Haman, that adversary of the Jews, to Queen Esther. Now Mordecai had come before the king, for Esther had revealed how he was related to her.

For every wild animal in the forest belongs to me, as well as the cattle that graze on a thousand hills.

A benevolent person leaves an inheritance for his grandchildren, but the wealth of a sinner is stored up for the righteous.

Am I not permitted to do what I want with what belongs to me? Or are you envious because I am generous?'
