Where does the Bible say using your mouth to rob others leads to poverty?

[jennifer_bloom]

The bible says if you rob others, or God, with your words, you will end up in poverty.

Now the bible rarely use money as the only metric for poverty, but rather the references to material poverty are symbols that represent other forms of poverty...

Such as mental illness among the very rich, shortened life span, health issues among the very elite, social issues in the family like your children's drug use or abusive partners, moral failure that primes you for hellfire when you die, or domestic violence at home while being rich and beautiful...

So I do not want you to believe that the bible uses a lack of money as its main punishment, instead, the bible suggests, a lack of meaning and good quality of life, might sometimes be punishment for sins, even among the rich and visually popular.

One musician who died with $50,000,000 said on his death bed that "money doesn't buy health."

He had money, but he died in biological, genetic, and physical poverty.

I don't know. I don't remember any thing like that. But considering the type of text, probably proverbs. But don't quote me on that. Actually... let me look real quick, I got a Strongs Concordance that's off the hook.

UPDATED::: yup I was right. Proverbs 14:23 mere talk leads only to poverty, contrasting the profit found in hard work with the lack caused by empty speech.

Let's refer to the New International Version, a translation we can all enjoy.

Proverbs 21:6

"A fortune made by a lying tongue
is a fleeting vapor and a deadly snare."
