1 When you sit down to eat with a ruler, discern carefully what is before your face, 2 and put a knife to your throat if you are an owner of an appetite. 3 You should not mark out his delicacies, for it is bread of lies. 4 Do not toil to become rich, cease from your own understanding. 5 Will you make your eyes fly onto it, and it is not there? For it certainly makes for itself wings like an eagle and flies away to the heavens! Proverbs 23:1-5, Berean Literal Bible. Public domain.
