Proverbs 27:23-27

23Always take care of your sheep and your goats, as well as your cows.

24Your riches will not be there for ever. One family does not rule a kingdom for ever.

25One day you will cut the grass in your fields and then new grass will grow. You will store the grass that has grown on the hills.

26Then you will use the wool from your sheep to make clothes. You make clothes from your sheep's wool. You will sell your goats, and you will buy a field.

27You will have enough milk from your goats to feed yourself, your family and your female servants.
