Proverbs 23:3-5

English Standard Version

^3 (A)Do not desire his delicacies,
    for they are deceptive food.
^4 (B)Do not toil to acquire wealth;
    ^(C)be discerning enough to desist.
⁵ When your eyes light on it, it is gone,
    ^(D)for suddenly it sprouts wings,
    flying like an eagle toward heaven.
