Proverbs 11:28

A life devoted to things is a dead life, a stump; a God-shaped life is a flourishing tree. [The Message ]

Trust in your money and down you go! But the godly flourish like leaves in spring. [New Living Translation]

He that trusts in wealth shall fall; but he that helps righteous men shall rise. [Brenton Septuagint Translation]

Those who trust in their wealth are headed for great disappointment, but those who do right will sprout like green leaves in the spring. [The Voice]
