thou shalt be build up, thou shalt put away iniquity far from thy tabernacles." In the French translation we read "Thou shalt be re-established if thou returnest to the Almighty, putting iniquity far off from your dwellings."
In the 24th verse we read a new and amazing translation. The English Bible reads, "Then shalt thou lay up gold as dust, and the gold of Ophir as the stones of the brooks." The French Bible says: "Throw gold into the dust, the gold of Ophir amongst the pebbles of the torrents, and the Almighty shall be thy gold, thy silver, thy riches."
This means if people are depending entirely on their visible supply, it is even better to throw it away and trust absolutely to the Almighty for gold, silver and riches.
I give an example in the story told me by a friend.
A priest went to visit a nunnery in France, where they fed many children. One of the nuns, in despair, told the priest they had no food, the children must go hungry. She said that they had but one piece of silver (about the value of a quarter of a dollar). They needed food and clothing.
The priest said, "Give me the coin."
She handed it to him and he threw it out the window.
"Now," he said, "rely entirely upon God."
Within a short time friends arrived with plenty of food and gifts of money.
This doesn't mean to throw away what money you have, but don't depend upon it. Depend upon your invisible supply, the Bank of the Imagination.
