Salmene 37,16

Money and wealthContentmentJustice

14 De ugudelige spenner buen
For å felle de fattige og trengende,
For å drepe dem som vandrer rettskaffent.

15 Deres sverd skal trenge inn i deres eget hjerte,
Og deres buer skal bli brutt.

Det lille som den rettferdige har
Er bedre enn de mange ugudeliges rikdom.

17 For de ugudeliges styrke skal brytes,
Men Herren støtter de rettferdige.

18 Herren kjenner de uskyldiges dager,
Og deres arv skal vare evig.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
