But godliness actually is a source of great gain when accompanied by contentment [that contentment which comes from a sense of inner confidence based on the sufficiency of God].

Acquiring treasures by a lying tongue
Is a fleeting vapor, the seeking and pursuit of death.

“Like the partridge that hatches eggs which she has not laid,
So is he who makes a fortune in ways that are unjust.
It will be lost to him before his days are over,
And in the end he will be [nothing but] a fool.”

“Are there not still treasures gained by wickedness
In the house of the wicked,
And a short (inaccurate) measure [for grain] that is cursed?

General references

Than the abundance (riches) of many wicked (godless).

Better is the poor who walks in his integrity
Than he who is crooked and two-faced though he is rich.

One hand full of rest and patience is better than two fists full of labor and chasing after the wind.
