Do not wear yourself out in the pursuit of wealth, and cease even to think about it. | Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. |
When you fix your gaze upon it, it is gone before you realize it. For it suddenly sprouts wings and flies up to the sky like an eagle. | Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven. |
My son, if your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad. | My son, if thine heart be wise, my heart shall rejoice, even mine. |
The father of a good man will rejoice; he who begets a wise son will delight in him. | The father of the righteous shall greatly rejoice: and he that begetteth a wise child shall have joy of him. |
Bible verse of the day
Do not work for food that perishesbut for the food that endures for eternal life,
which the Son of Man will give you.
For it is on him
that God the Father has set his seal.
