Luke 12:33

Πωλήσατε τὰ ὑπάρχοντα ὑμῶν καὶ δότε ἐλεημοσύνην· ποιήσατε ἑαυτοῖς βαλάντια μὴ παλαιούμενα θησαυρὸν ἀνέκλειπτον ἐν τοῖς οὐρανοῖς ὅπου κλέπτης οὐκ ἐγγίζει οὐδὲ σὴς διαφθείρει·
Sell that ye have, and give alms; provide yourselves bags which wax old, not a treasure in the heavens that faileth not, where no thief approacheth, neither moth corrupteth.

6
This he said, not that he cared for the poor; but because he was a thief, and had the bag, and bare what was put therein.
