| Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. | Don’t weary yourself to be rich. In your wisdom, show restraint. |
| Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven. | Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky. |
|
| My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. | My son, if your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad, even mine. |
| 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 has great joy. Whoever fathers a wise child delights in him. |
