Mt 5, 6English original
Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Or, this is again a promise of a temporal reward; for as covetousness is thought to make many rich, He affirms on the contrary that righteousness rather makes rich, for He who loves righteousness possesses all things in safety.
