Ecclesiastes 5:10-13 Lexham English Bible (LEB)

10. Whoever loves money is not satisfied with money, and whoever loves wealth is not satisfied with profit. This also is vanity!

11. When prosperity increases, those who consume it increase. So its owner gains nothing, except to see his wealth before it is spent.

12. The sleep of the laborer is pleasant, whether he eats little or much, but the wealth of the rich man does not allow him to rest.

13. There is a grievous evil which I have seen under the sun: wealth hoarded by its owner to his harm.
