They trust in their wealth; the abundance of their riches is their boast. Yet in no way can a man redeem himself, or pay his own ransom to God; too high is the price to redeem one’s life; he would never have enough to remain alive always and not see destruction. For he can see that wise men die, and likewise the senseless and the stupid pass away, leaving to others their wealth. (Psalm 49:7-11)Thus will it be for the one who stores up treasure for himself but is not rich in what matters to God.” (Luke 12:21)
Every scribe who has been trained for the kingdom of heaven is like a householder who brings out of his treasure what is new and what is old. -- Matthew 13:52
