  • Josh 7:1-9 : 1 But the Israelites acted unfaithfully with the things designated for destruction. Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, from the tribe of Judah, took some of the devoted things, and the anger of the Lord burned against the Israelites. 2 Joshua sent men from Jericho to Ai, which is near Beth-Aven to the east of Bethel, and said to them, "Go up and scout out the land." So the men went up and explored Ai. 3 When they returned to Joshua, they said, "Not everyone needs to go up. About two or three thousand men are enough to attack Ai. Do not make all the people toil there, for the population is small." 4 So about three thousand men went up, but they fled from the men of Ai. 5 The men of Ai struck down about thirty-six of them. They chased them from the city gate as far as the quarries and struck them down on the slopes. At this, the hearts of the people melted and became like water. 6 Then Joshua tore his clothes and fell face down to the ground before the ark of the Lord, remaining there until evening. The elders of Israel did the same and put dust on their heads. 7 Joshua said, "Alas, Sovereign Lord, why did you bring this people across the Jordan to deliver us into the hands of the Amorites to destroy us? If only we had been content to stay on the other side of the Jordan! 8 Pardon me, O Lord, what can I say now that Israel has turned its back and fled from its enemies? 9 The Canaanites and all the inhabitants of the land will hear of this and surround us. They will cut off our name from the earth. And then, what will you do for your great name? 10 The Lord said to Joshua, "Stand up! Why are you down on your face? 11 Israel has sinned; they have violated my covenant, which I commanded them to keep. They have taken some of the devoted things; they have stolen, they have lied, and they have put them with their own possessions. 12 That is why the Israelites cannot stand against their enemies; they turn their backs and run because they have been made liable to destruction. I will not be with you anymore unless you destroy whatever among you is devoted to destruction. 13 Go, consecrate the people. Tell them, ‘Consecrate yourselves for tomorrow, because this is what the Lord, the God of Israel, says: There are devoted things among you, Israel. You cannot stand against your enemies until you remove them.’ 14 In the morning, present yourselves tribe by tribe. The tribe the Lord selects shall come forward clan by clan; the clan the Lord selects shall come forward family by family; and the family the Lord selects shall come forward man by man. 15 The one caught with the devoted things shall be burned with fire, he and all that belongs to him, because he has violated the Lord’s covenant and has done an outrageous thing in Israel. 16 Early the next morning, Joshua had Israel come forward by tribes, and the tribe of Judah was taken. 17 He had the clans of Judah come forward, and the clan of the Zerahites was taken. He had the clan of the Zerahites come forward, family by family, and Zabdi was taken. 18 Joshua had his family come forward man by man, and Achan, son of Carmi, son of Zabdi, son of Zerah, of the tribe of Judah, was taken. 19 Then Joshua said to Achan, "My son, give glory to the Lord, the God of Israel, and give Him praise. Tell me now what you have done; do not hide it from me." 20 Achan answered Joshua, "Truly, I have sinned against the Lord, the God of Israel, and this is what I did: 21 When I saw among the spoil a beautiful robe from Babylonia, two hundred shekels of silver, and a bar of gold weighing fifty shekels, I coveted them and took them. They are hidden in the ground inside my tent, with the silver underneath." 22 So Joshua sent messengers, and they ran to the tent, and behold, it was hidden in his tent, with the silver underneath. 23 They took the things from the tent, brought them to Joshua and all the Israelites, and spread them out before the Lord. 24 Then Joshua, together with all Israel, took Achan, son of Zerah, along with the silver, the robe, the bar of gold, his sons, daughters, cattle, donkeys, sheep, his tent, and all that he had, and brought them up to the Valley of Achor. 25 Joshua said, "Why have you brought this trouble on us? The Lord will trouble you today." Then all Israel stoned him, and after they had stoned the rest, they burned them with fire. 26 They raised over him a great heap of stones, which remains to this day. Then the Lord turned from His fierce anger. Therefore, that place has been called the Valley of Achor to this day.
  • 1 Sam 2:7-8 : 7 'The LORD makes poor and makes rich; He humbles and He exalts.' 8 'He raises the poor from the dust and lifts the needy from the ash heap to sit with nobles and inherit a seat of honor. For the foundations of the earth are the LORD’s; upon them He has set the world.'
  • 1 Kgs 21:19 : 19 Speak to him and say, “Thus says the LORD: Have you murdered and also taken possession?” Then say to him, “Thus says the LORD: In the place where the dogs licked up Naboth’s blood, the dogs will also lick up your blood—yes, yours.”'
  • 2 Kgs 5:26-27 : 26 But Elisha said to him, 'Was my spirit not with you when the man got down from his chariot to meet you? Is this the time to take money or accept clothes, olive groves, vineyards, sheep, cattle, male servants, and female servants?' 27 Naaman’s leprosy will cling to you and to your descendants forever.' Then Gehazi went out from Elisha's presence, leprous, as white as snow.
  • Job 27:8-9 : 8 For what hope has the godless when he is cut off, when God takes away his life? 9 Will God listen to his cry when distress comes upon him? 10 Does he delight in the Almighty and call upon God at all times? 11 I will teach you about God's power; I will not conceal what is with the Almighty. 12 Look, all of you have seen this yourselves; why then do you speak nonsense? 13 This is the portion allocated by God to a wicked man, the inheritance ruthless men will receive from the Almighty: 14 If his children multiply, it is for the sword, and his offspring will not have enough bread. 15 His survivors will be buried in death, and his widows will not weep for them. 16 Though he heaps up silver like dust and piles up clothes like clay, 17 he may prepare it, but the righteous will wear it, and the innocent will divide his silver. 18 He builds his house like a moth’s cocoon, like a hut made by a watchman. 19 The rich man lies down, but he will not be gathered; he opens his eyes, and he is no more. 20 Terrors overtake him like a flood; in the night a storm sweeps him away. 21 The east wind lifts him up, and he is gone; it sweeps him out of his place. 22 It hurls itself against him without mercy; he flees desperately from its power. 23 It claps its hands at him and hisses at him as he is driven away from his place.
  • Deut 8:17-18 : 17 You may say in your heart, 'My power and the strength of my hand have produced this wealth for me.' 18 But remember the Lord your God, for it is He who gives you the power to gain wealth, so that He may confirm His covenant which He swore to your fathers, as it is today.
  • Prov 28:22 : 22 A man with an evil eye hastens after wealth and does not consider that poverty will come upon him.
