Proverbs 27:24
King James Version
“For riches not for ever: and doth the crown to every generation?”
Context
21the fining pot for silver, and the furnace for gold; so a man to his praise.
22Though thou shouldest bray a fool in a mortar among wheat with a pestle, will not his foolishness depart from him.
23Be thou diligent to know the state of thy flocks, look well to thy herds.
24For riches not for ever: and doth the crown to every generation?
25The hay appeareth, and the tender grass sheweth itself, and herbs of the mountains are gathered.
26The lambs for thy clothing, and the goats the price of the field.
27And goats’ milk enough for thy food, for the food of thy household, and the maintenance for thy maidens.
