Ben Sira 31:3

3 The rich hath great labor in gathering riches together; and when he resteth, he is filled with his delicacies.

Ben Sira 31:3 In-Context

1 Watching for riches consumeth the flesh, and the care thereof driveth away sleep.

2 Wakeful care will not let a man slumber, as a sore disease breaketh sleep.

3 The rich hath great labor in gathering riches together; and when he resteth, he is filled with his delicacies.

4 The poor laboreth in his poor estate; and when he leaveth off, he is still needy.

5 He that loveth gold shall not be justified, and he that followeth corruption shall have enough thereof.
