If thou seest the oppression of the poor, and violent perverting of judgment and justice in a province, marvel not at the matter: for [he that is] higher than the highest regardeth; and [there be] higher than they.

Moreover the profit of the earth is for all: the king [himself] is served by the field.

He that loveth silver shall not be satisfied with silver; nor he that loveth abundance with increase: this [is] also vanity.
