4 Do not wear yourself out to gain wealth, cease to be worried about it; 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 When your glance flits to it, it is gone! For assuredly it grows wings, like the eagle that flies toward heaven. 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.
