Proverbs 27:23

All About Life

²² Even if a foolish man is crushed with a hammer in a vessel among crushed grain, still his foolish ways will not go from him. ²³ Take care to have knowledge about the condition of your flocks, looking well after your herds; ²⁴ For wealth is not for ever, and money does not go on for all generations.
