| 4 | Do not be willing to labor so that you may be enriched. But set limits by your prudence. | Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. | Do not wear yourself out to get rich; do not trust your own cleverness. | |
| 5 | Do not raise your eyes toward wealth that you are not able to have. For they will make themselves wings, like those of an eagle, and they will fly in the sky. | When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven. | 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. | |
