New Living Translation NLT
New International Version NIV
23 Know the state of your flocks, and put your heart into caring for your herds,
23
Be sure you know the condition of your flocks, give careful attention to your herds;
24 for riches don’t last forever, and the crown might not be passed to the next generation.
24
for riches do not endure forever, and a crown is not secure for all generations.
25 After the hay is harvested and the new crop appears and the mountain grasses are gathered in,
25
When the hay is removed and new growth appears and the grass from the hills is gathered in,
26 your sheep will provide wool for clothing, and your goats will provide the price of a field.
26
the lambs will provide you with clothing, and the goats with the price of a field.
27 And you will have enough goats’ milk for yourself, your family, and your servant girls.
27
You will have plenty of goats’ milk to feed your family and to nourish your female servants.
