Command those who are rich
in this present world not to be arrogant
nor to put their hope in wealth,
which is so uncertain, but to put their
hope in God, who richly provides us
with everything for our enjoyment.
Command them to do good, to be
rich in good deeds, and to be generous
and willing to share. In this way they
will lay up treasure for themselves as
a firm foundation for the coming age,
so that they may take hold of the
life that is
truly life.
1Timothy 6:17-19
