Proverbs 27:23-27

23 1Know well the 2condition of your flocks, And pay attention to your herds;24For riches are not forever, Nor does a 3crown endure to all generations.25When the grass disappears, the new growth is seen, And the herbs of the mountains are 4gathered in,26The lambs will be for your clothing, And the goats will bring the price of a field,27And there will be goats’ milk enough for your food, For the food of your household, And sustenance for your maidens.
