Remove far from me falsehood and lying; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is needful for me, lest I be full and deny you and say, “Who is the LORD?” or lest I be poor and steal and profane the name of my God. (Proverbs 30:8-9 ESV)
God also promises prosperity so it does make it confusing. The case is made that wealth and prosperity is not always a sign of God's blessing. When his people (the TRUE sons of Abraham) are blessed that is something different. When physical blessings are added to existing spiritual blessing, that is fulfillment of God's promise. That is what I don't see in the Jews as a whole.
