Do not wear yourself out to get rich; do not trust your own cleverness. | Don’t weary yourself to be rich. In your wisdom, show restraint. |
Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle. | 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 your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad indeed. | My son, if your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad, even mine. |
The father of a righteous child has great joy; a man who fathers a wise son rejoices in him. | The father of the righteous has great joy. Whoever fathers a wise child delights in him. |
