Harun Yahya (Adnan Oktar)
his fathers, who will never see the light of life. A man who has
riches without understanding is like the beasts that perish.
(Psalms, 49:1-2, 6-20)
They will perish, but You remain; they will all wear out like
a garment. Like clothing You will change them and they will
be discarded. But You remain the same, and your years will
never end. (Psalms, 102:26-27)
With Me are riches and honor, enduring wealth and prosper-
ity. (Proverbs, 8:18)
... Riches do not endure forever, and a crown is not secure for
all generations. (Proverbs, 27:24)
Charm is deceptive, and beauty is fleeting; but a woman
who fears the Lord is to be praised. (Proverbs, 31:30)
Whoever trusts in his riches will fall, but the righteous will
thrive like a green leaf. (Proverbs, 11:28)
... The wealth they acquired is gone. (Jeremiah, 48:36)
In that day the Lord will snatch away their finery: the bangles
and headbands and crescent necklaces, the earrings and
bracelets and veils, the headdresses and ankle chains and sash-
es, the perfume bottles and charms, the signet rings and nose
rings, the fine robes and the capes and cloaks, the purses and
mirrors, and the linen garments and tiaras and shawls. Instead
of fragrance there will be a stench; instead of a sash, a rope;
instead of well-dressed hair, baldness; instead of fine cloth-
ing, sackcloth; instead of beauty, branding. (Isaiah, 3:18-24)
