Take no care to get wealth; let there be an end to your desire for money Are your eyes lifted up to it? it is gone: for wealth takes to itself wings, like an eagle in flight up to heaven. Do not take the food of him who has an evil eye, or have any desire for his delicate meat: For as the thoughts of his heart are, so is he: Take food and drink, he says to you; but his heart is not with you. The food which you have taken will come up again, and your pleasing words will be wasted.
