11 Money that comes easily disappears quickly,

but money that is gathered little by little will grow.

11 Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished;

But he that gathereth by labor shall have increase.

11 Wealth gotten by vanity diminisheth; but he that gathereth by manual-labour shall increase it.

11 Wealth ⸤gained⸥ through injustice dwindles away, 

but whoever gathers little by little has plenty. 

11 Wealth obtained by fraud will dwindle,

but whoever earns it through labor will multiply it.

11 Wealth hastily gotten will dwindle,

but those who gather little by little will increase it.

11 Wealth gained from haste will dwindle,

but he who gathers little by little will increase it.

11 Money that is gained in the wrong way disappears.

But money that is gathered little by little grows.

11 Wealth obtained by fraud dwindles,

But the one who gathers by labor increases it.
