16Though he heaps up silver like dust

and clothes like piles of clay,

16“Though he piles up silver like dust,

And prepares garments as plentiful as the clay,

16“Though he heaps up silver like dust

And piles up clothing like clay,

16Though he heaps up silver like dust

and piles up a wardrobe like clay,

16Though he heap up silver as the dust,

And prepare raiment as the clay;

16Though he shoulde heape vp siluer as the dust, and prepare rayment as the clay,

16Though he heap up silver as the dust,

and prepare clothing as the clay;

16Sinners might store up silver like dust

and clothes like piles of clay.

16Wicked people may have lots of money.

They may have silver like heaps of sand.

They may have more clothes than they could ever wear.

16If he heaps up silver as dust, || And prepares clothing as clay,
