Don’t wear yourself out trying to get rich. Be wise enough to know when to quit. | Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. |
In the blink of an eye wealth disappears, for it will sprout wings and fly away like an eagle. | When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven. |
|
My child, if your heart is wise, my own heart will rejoice! | My son, if your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad. |
The father of godly children has cause for joy. What a pleasure to have children who are wise. | The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him. |
