Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. | Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. |
Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven. | When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven. |
My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. | My son, if your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad. |
The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him. | The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him. |
Bible verse of the day
