Proverbs 23:4-5
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
4 Do not wear yourself out to get rich;
be wise enough to desist.(A)
5 When your eyes light upon it, it is gone,
for suddenly it takes wings to itself,
flying like an eagle toward heaven.
Proverbs 23:4-5

because you know better, stop!
5 As soon as your eyes fly to it, it disappears,(B)
for it makes wings for itself
and flies like an eagle to the sky.
