Ben Sira 31:7

7 It is a stumbling block unto them that sacrifice unto it, and every fool shall be taken therewith.

Ben Sira 31:7 In-Context

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

6 Gold hath been the ruin of many, and their destruction was present.

7 It is a stumbling block unto them that sacrifice unto it, and every fool shall be taken therewith.

8 Blessed is the rich that is found without blemish, and hath not gone after gold.

9 Who is he? And we will call him blessed, for wonderful things hath he done among his people.
