What the Bible says about: Riches

Deuteronomy 31:20 For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, that floweth with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxen fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and provoke me, and break my covenant.
1 Samuel 2:7 The LORD maketh poor, and maketh rich: he bringeth low, and lifteth up.
Psalms 37:16 A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked.
Psalms 52:1-7 Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of God endureth continually.
  Thy tongue deviseth mischiefs; like a sharp razor, working deceitfully.
  Thou lovest evil more than good; and lying rather than to speak righteousness. Selah.
  Thou lovest all devouring words, O thou deceitful tongue.
  God shall likewise destroy thee for ever, he shall take thee away, and pluck thee out of thy dwelling place, and root thee out of the land of the living. Selah.
  The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him:
  Lo, this is the man that made not God his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness.
Psalms 73:3-22 For I was envious at the foolish, when I saw the prosperity of the wicked.
  For there are no bands in their death: but their strength is firm.
  They are not in trouble as other men; neither are they plagued like other men.
  Therefore pride compasseth them about as a chain; violence covereth them as a garment.
  Their eyes stand out with fatness: they have more than heart could wish.
  They are corrupt, and speak wickedly concerning oppression: they speak loftily.
  They set their mouth against the heavens, and their tongue walketh through the earth.
  Therefore his people return hither: and waters of a full cup are wrung out to them.
  And they say, How doth God know? and is there knowledge in the most High?
  Behold, these are the ungodly, who prosper in the world; they increase in riches.
  Verily I have cleansed my heart in vain, and washed my hands in innocency.
  For all the day long have I been plagued, and chastened every morning.
  If I say, I will speak thus; behold, I should offend against the generation of thy children.
  When I thought to know this, it was too painful for me;
  Until I went into the sanctuary of God; then understood I their end.
  Surely thou didst set them in slippery places: thou castedst them down into destruction.
  How are they brought into desolation, as in a moment! they are utterly consumed with terrors.
  As a dream when one awaketh; so, O Lord, when thou awakest, thou shalt despise their image.
  Thus my heart was grieved, and I was pricked in my reins.
  So foolish was I, and ignorant: I was as a beast before thee.
