Proverbs 23:3-5

The Voice

³ Also, do not eye the ruler’s delicacies,
    for the food may not be what it seems.
⁴ Do not overwork yourself just to become wealthy;
    have enough sense to know when to quit.
⁵ As soon as you become fixed on riches, they vanish.
    For suddenly they sprout wings
    and become like a soaring eagle flying high in the sky.
