A life devoted to things is a dead life, a stump;
a God-shaped life is a flourishing tree.
Proverbs 11:28 (The Message)
He who trusts in his riches will fall,
But the righteous will flourish like foliage.
Proverbs 11:28 (New King James Version)
Trust in your money and down you go!
But the godly flourish like leaves in spring.
Proverbs 11:28 (New Living Translation)
