Deuteronomy 8:12

¹⁰ When you eat and are satisfied, you are to bless the LORD your God for the good land that He has given you.

¹¹ Be careful not to forget the LORD your God by failing to keep His commandments and ordinances and statutes, which I am giving you this day.

Otherwise, when you eat and are satisfied, when you build fine houses in which to dwell,

¹³ and when your herds and flocks grow large and your silver and gold increase and all that you have is multiplied,

¹⁴ then your heart will become proud, and you will forget the LORD your God who brought you out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of slavery.
