Do not overwork to be rich; Because of your own understanding, cease! | Do not weary yourself to gain wealth; Stop dwelling on it. |
Will you set your eyes on that which is not? For riches certainly make themselves wings; They fly away like an eagle toward heaven. | When you set your eyes on it, it is gone. For wealth certainly makes itself wings Like an eagle that flies toward the heavens. |
My son, if your heart is wise, My heart will rejoice—indeed, I myself. | My son, if your heart is wise, My own heart also will be glad. |
The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice, And he who begets a wise child will delight in him. | The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice, And he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him. |
