Sirach 31:8

8 Happy are the rich who are without blame and who don't follow after gold.

Sirach 31:8 In-Context

6 Many have been ruined because of gold, and their destruction has met them head-on.
7 It's a stumbling block for those who are possessed by it, and it will take every senseless person captive.
8 Happy are the rich who are without blame and who don't follow after gold.
9 Who are they, so that we might praise them? They have done wonders among the people.
10 Who has been tested by wealth and been found perfect? For them it will be a reason to boast. Who had the power to sin and didn't, and could do evil but didn't?
