Now therefore let Pharaoh select a
discerning and wise man, and set
him over the land of Egypt. Let
Pharaoh proceed to appoint
overseers over the land and take
one-fifth of the produce of the
land of Egypt during the seven
plentiful years. And let them
gather all the food of these good
years that are coming and store up
grain under the authority of
Pharaoh for food in the cities,
and let them keep it. That food
shall be a reserve for the land
against the seven years of famine
that are to occur in the land of
Egypt, so that the land may not
perish through the famine. This
proposal pleased Pharaoh and all
his servants. ...
(Genesis 41:33-57)
ESV
You shall not give up to his
master a slave who has escaped
from his master to you. He shall
dwell with you, in your midst, in
the place that he shall choose
within one of your towns, wherever
it suits him. You shall not wrong
him. None of the daughters of
Israel shall be a cult prostitute,
and none of the sons of Israel
shall be a cult prostitute. You
shall not bring the fee of a
prostitute or the wages of a dog
into the house of the Lord your
God in payment for any vow, for
both of these are an abomination
to the Lord your God. You shall
not charge interest on loans to
your brother, interest on money,
interest on food, interest on
anything that is lent for
interest. ...
(Deuteronomy 23:15-24)
ESV
The wicked borrows but does not
pay back, but the righteous is
generous and gives;
(Psalm 37:21)
ESV
Precious treasure and oil are in a
wise man's dwelling, but a foolish
man devours it.
(Proverbs 21:20)
ESV
Prepare your work outside; get
everything ready for yourself in
the field, and after that build
your house.
(Proverbs 24:27)
ESV
An excellent wife who can find?
She is far more precious than
jewels. The heart of her husband
trusts in her, and he will have no
lack of gain. She does him good,
and not harm, all the days of her
life. She seeks wool and flax, and
works with willing hands. She is
like the ships of the merchant;
she brings her food from afar. ...
(Proverbs 31:10-31)
ESV
He who observes the wind will not
sow, and he who regards the clouds
will not reap. As you do not know
the way the spirit comes to the
bones in the womb of a woman with
child, so you do not know the work
of God who makes everything. In
the morning sow your seed, and at
evening withhold not your hand,
for you do not know which will
prosper, this or that, or whether
both alike will be good.
(Ecclesiastes 11:4-6)
ESV
Give, and it will be given to you.
Good measure, pressed down, shaken
together, running over, will be
put into your lap. For with the
measure you use it will be
measured back to you.
(Luke 6:38)
ESV
And remain in the same house,
eating and drinking what they
provide, for the laborer deserves
his wages. Do not go from house to
house.
(Luke 10:7)
ESV
And when they had eaten their
fill, he told his disciples,
Gather up the leftover fragments,
that nothing may be lost.
(John 6:12)
ESV
For even when we were with you, we
would give you this command: If
anyone is not willing to work, let
him not eat.
(2 Thessalonians 3:10)
ESV
For the love of money is a root of
all kinds of evils. It is through
this craving that some have
wandered away from the faith and
pierced themselves with many
pangs.
(1 Timothy 6:10)
ESV
All Scripture is breathed out by
God and profitable for teaching,
for reproof, for correction, and
for training in righteousness,
that the man of God may be
competent, equipped for every good
work.
(2 Timothy 3:16,17)

Inspirational Quotes from Famous People |
Economics has never been a science
- and it is even less now than a
few years ago.
--Paul Samuelson American
Economist Born 1915
Economics is a subject profoundly
conducive to cliche, resonant with
boredom. On few topics is an
American audience so practiced in
turning off its ears and minds.
And none can say that the response
is ill advised.
--John Kenneth Galbraith American
Economist Born 1908 Died 2006
Economics is a subject that does
not greatly respect one's wishes.
--Nikita Khrushchev Russian
Statesman Born 1894 Died 1971
Economics is extremely useful as a
form of employment for economists.
--John Kenneth Galbraith American
Economist Born 1908 Died 2006
I studied economics and made it my
career for two reasons. The
subject was and is intellectually
fascinating and challenging,
particularly to someone with taste
and talent for theoretical
reasoning and quantitative
analysis.
--James Tobin American Economist
Born 1918 Died 2002
I think it is just stupid
economics for a government to
approach economic management from
a strand of thinking regarding
unions as enemies.
--Bob Hawke Australian Statesman
Born 1929
I think we're miserable partly
because we have only one god, and
that's economics.
--James Hillman American
Psychologist Born 1926
I'd call it a new version of
voodoo economics, but I'm afraid
that would give witch doctors a
bad name.
--Geraldine Ferraro American
Politician Born 1935 Died 2011
In economics,
the majority is always wrong.
--John Kenneth Galbraith American
Economist Born 1908 Died 2006
Much of what
Tea Party candidates claimed about
the world and the global economy
during the 2010 elections would
have earned their adherents a
well-deserved F in any freshman
economics (or earth science)
class.
--Eric Alterman American Writer
Born 1960
The
professional study of economics
has become ideological
brainwashing. It is a defense of
the excesses of the capitalist
system.
--David Korten American Activist
Where there
is politics or economics, there is
no morality.
--Karl Wilhelm Friedrich Schlegel
German Poet Born 1772 Died 18294 |
