Proverbs 23:5

King James Version (1769 Blayney revision, with Apocrypha) · Berean Standard Bible

Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? (note: Heb. wilt thou cause thine eyes to fly upon?) for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.
When you glance at wealth, it disappears, for it makes wings for itself and flies like an eagle to the sky.
