Proverbs 23:4-5
Legacy Standard Bible
4 (A)Do not weary yourself to gain wealth,
(B)Because of your understanding, cease!
5 Do you make your eyes fly up to see it? But it is not there!
Because (C)it certainly makes itself wings
Like an eagle that flies toward the heavens.
Proverbs 23:4-5
New Living Translation
4 Don’t wear yourself out trying to get rich.
Be wise enough to know when to quit.
5 In the blink of an eye wealth disappears,
for it will sprout wings
and fly away like an eagle.
