Berean Study Bible
When you glance at wealth, it disappears, for it makes wings for itself and flies like an eagle to the sky.

Young's Literal Translation
For wealth maketh to itself wings, As an eagle it flieth to the heavens.

Holman Christian Standard Bible
As soon as your eyes fly to it, it disappears, for it makes wings for itself and flies like an eagle to the sky.

New American Standard Bible
When you set your eyes on it, it is gone. For [wealth] certainly makes itself wings Like an eagle that flies [toward] the heavens.

King James Bible
Wilt thou set {08675;05774:08799} thine eyes upon that which is not? for [riches] certainly make themselves wings; they fly away {08675;05774:08687} as an eagle toward heaven.
