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