Do not be afraid, my boy, because we have come down to poverty. You have great wealth, if you fear God, keep clear of every sin, and do what pleases him.”
In context
19At every season bless the Lord God, and ask him that your ways be made straight and that all your paths and plans come out well — for no nation has counsel of its own; the Lord himself gives every good thing, and he brings low whomever he pleases, however he pleases. So now, my boy, hold my commandments in your mind, and let nothing rub them out of your heart. 20And now I am telling you about the ten talents of silver I left on deposit with Gabael, the son of Gabri, at Rages in Media. 21Do not be afraid, my boy, because we have come down to poverty. You have great wealth, if you fear God, keep clear of every sin, and do what pleases him.”
