Ben Sira 31:3

3 The rich man hath laboured in gathering riches together, and when he resteth he shall be filled with his goods.

Ben Sira 31:3 In-Context

1 WATCHING for riches consumeth the flesh, and the thought thereof driveth away sleep.
2 The thinking beforehand turneth away the understanding, and a grievous sickness maketh the soul sober.
3 The rich man hath laboured in gathering riches together, and when he resteth he shall be filled with his goods.
4 The poor man hath laboured in his low way of life, and in the end he is still poor.
5 He that loveth gold, shall not be justified: and he that followeth after corruption, shall be filled with it.
