10 He who loves money ^hwill not be satisfied with money, nor he who loves wealth with his income; this also is vanity.

15 And he said to them, “Take care, and be on your guard against all ⁱcovetousness, for one’s life does not consist in the abundance of his possessions.”

6 But ^tgodliness with ^ucontentment is great gain, 7 for we brought nothing into the world, and¹ we ^vcannot take anything out of the world. 8 But if we have food and clothing, with these we will be content. 9 But ^wthose who desire to be rich fall into temptation, into a ^xsnare, into many senseless and harmful desires that ^yplunge people into ruin and destruction. 10 For the love of money is a root of all kinds of evils. It is through this craving that some have wandered away from the faith and pierced themselves with many pangs.

5 Keep your life free from ^zlove of money, and be ^acontent with what you have, for he has said, ^b“I will never leave you nor forsake you.”
