Don’t weary yourself to be rich. In your wisdom, show restraint. | Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. |
Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky. | When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven. |

My son, if your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad, even mine. | My son, if your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad. |
The father of the righteous has great joy. Whoever fathers a wise child delights in him. | The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him. |
