Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
Like a partridge hatching eggs it did not lay is the man who makes a fortune unjustly. In the middle of his days his riches will desert him, and in the end he will be the fool.”
World English Bible (WEB)
As the partridge that sits on eggs which she has not laid, so is he who gets riches, and not by right; in the midst of his days they shall leave him, and at his end he shall be a fool.
Strong's King James
As the partridge{H7124} sitteth{H1716}{(H8804)} on eggs, and hatcheth{H3205}{(H8804)} them not; so he that getteth{H6213}{(H8802)} riches{H6239}, and not by right{H4941}, shall leave{H5800}{(H8799)} them in the midst{H2677} of his days{H3117}, and at his end{H319} shall be a fool{H5036}.

Young's Literal Translation
A partridge hatching, and not bringing forth, Is one making wealth, and not by right, In the midst of his days he doth forsake it, And in his latter end—he is a fool.
