Curing An Avaricious Man

Εἰ καὶ ἑάλως τῷ τῆς φιλαργυρίας ἰῷ, ὅσπερ καὶ παντός ἐστι ῥίζα κακοῦ, καὶ πρὸς εἰδωλολατρίαν ἐκβακχεύει σε, πᾶσαν πρὸς ἑαυτὸν μεταστήσας τὴν αἴσθησιν, ἀλλ' ἀπόκριναι αὐτῷ τὴν θεοδίδακτον φωνὴν, Κύριον τὸν Θεόν μου προσκυνήσω, καὶ αὐτῷ μόνῳ λατρεύσω. Καὶ ὁ μὲν οιχήσεται, σὺ δὲ ἀνανήψεις πρὸς τὴν αὐτάρκειαν. Ἅγιος Ἰσίδωρος Του Πηλουσιώτου, Βιβλίον Πρῶτον, Ἐπιστολὴ ΥΛΔ', Κρισπῳ Source: Migne 78.421b

If you have been struck by the dart of the love of money, which is the root of all evil, 1 and it has driven you to a frenzy, possessing all your senses, answer it with the God taught speech, 'I serve the Lord my God and Him alone I revere,' 2 and it will depart, and you will return to yourself and be content with what is sufficient. Saint Isidore of Pelusium, Book 1, Letter 434, To Crispus 1 1 Tim 6.10 2 Mt 6.24, Deut 6.13
