Rejection of Materialism and Idolatry

Job 31:24-28

If I made gold mine hope, or haue sayd to the wedge of golde, Thou art my confidence,

If I reioyced because my substance was great, or because mine hand had gotten much,

If I did behold the sunne, when it shined, or the moone, walking in her brightnes,

If mine heart did flatter me in secrete, or if my mouth did kisse mine hand,

(This also had bene an iniquitie to be condemned: for I had denied the God aboue)
