Proverbs 23:4-6
Evangelical Heritage Version
4 Do not wear yourself out getting rich.
Have the good judgment to know when to stop.
5 Will your eyes get a glimpse of wealth before it is gone?
No, it will sprout wings for itself.
Like an eagle it will fly away into the sky.
6 Do not eat the food of a miser.
Do not crave his delicious food,
Proverbs 23:4-6
New International Version
Saying 8

do not trust your own cleverness.
5 Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone,(A)
for they will surely sprout wings
and fly off to the sky like an eagle.(B)
Saying 9
6 Do not eat the food of a begrudging host,
do not crave his delicacies;(C)
