Wealth from vanity is little
Money is a worthless thing. There is no great importance attributed to money.
("He who is wise in his wisdom, he will gather little and gather in the hand of the one who has much" - Proverbs 13:11, and so on: "And peace will be upon him, said He who is wise in his wisdom, he will gather little and gather, to teach and to make known how weak and how worthless is the wealth that has no fulfillment of its purpose" - Agnon/ This and That, and the crookedness was straight, 50)
