Proverbs 23:2

Compare all

1 When you sit down to eat with a ruler,
Consider carefully what is before you;

2 And put a knife to your throat
If you are a man given to appetite.

3 Do not desire his delicacies,
For they are deceptive food.

4 ^aDo not overwork to be rich;
^bBecause of your own understanding, cease!
