Proverbs 23:5

Wycliffe WYC

5 Raise not thine eyes to riches, which thou mayest not have; for those shall make to themselves pens, as of an eagle, and they shall fly into heaven. (Raise not up thine eyes to riches, which thou cannot hold onto; for they shall make wings for themselves, like an eagle, and they shall fly away into the heavens.)

New International Version NIV

5 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.
