Proverbs 23:4-5
Expanded Bible
4 Don’t wear yourself out trying to get rich;
be wise enough to ·control [stop] yourself.
5 ·Wealth can vanish in the wink of an eye [L Your eye can fly to it and it will be gone].
It can seem to grow wings
and fly away like an eagle.

Proverbs 23:4-5
Amplified Bible
4
Do not weary yourself [with the overwhelming desire] to gain wealth;
Cease from your own understanding of it.(A)
5
When you set your eyes on wealth, it is [suddenly] gone.
For wealth certainly makes itself wings
Like an eagle that flies to the heavens.
