Proverbs 23:4 - 23:8

Do not weary yourself to gain wealth,

Because of your understanding, cease!

Do you make your eyes fly up to see it? But it is not there!

Because it certainly makes itself wings

Like an eagle that flies toward the heavens.

Do not eat the bread of a selfish man,

And do not desire his delicacies;

For as he calculates in his soul, so he is.

“Eat and drink!” he says to you,

But his heart is not with you.

You will vomit up the morsel you have eaten,

And you will corrupt your pleasant words.
