Proverbs 23:1-7 When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, Consider diligently what is before thee: 2 And put a knife to thy throat, If thou be a man given to appetite. 3 Be not desirous of his dainties: For they are deceitful meat. 4 Labour not to be rich: Cease from thine own wisdom. 5 Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not?
