But they that will be rich fall into temptation and a snare, and
into many foolish and hurtful lusts, which drown men in

faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows.
James 4:13-16
Go to now, ye that say, To day or to morrow we will go into such a
city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain:
Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is
your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time,
and then vanisheth away. For that ye ought to say, If the Lord
will, we shall live, and do this, or that. But now ye rejoice in
your boastings: all such rejoicing is evil.
