Ecclesiastes 5:10-12

International Children’s Bible

¹⁰ The person who loves money
    will never have all the money he wants.
The person who loves wealth
    will not be satisfied when he gets it.
    This is also useless.
¹¹ The more wealth a person has,
    the more friends he has to help him spend it.
So what does he really gain?
    He gains nothing except to look at his riches.
¹² A man who works hard sleeps in peace.
    It is not important if he has little or much to eat.
But a rich person worries about his wealth.
    He cannot sleep.
