貪婪

Greed of gain is nothing less than the deification of self, and if our minds are set on hoarding wealth we are being idolatrous.

貪愛錢財等同於將自己視作神祉,而如果我們一心想的是積攢財富,那我們已將自身視為崇拜的偶像。

The world provides enough for every man's need but not for every man's greed.

世界足以供應各人需要,但卻無法滿足各人的貪婪。

Whereas other vices grow old as a man advances in life, avarice alone grows young.

Jerome

在其他惡行隨著人的經歷日漸衰老之際,唯獨貪婪卻是日漸年輕。

Avarice increases with the increasing pile of gold.

Juvenal

黃金越堆越高,貪婪隨之增加。
