Proverbs 23:1-6 Good News Bible (GNB)

1. When you sit down to eat with someone important, keep in mind who he is.

2. If you have a big appetite, restrain yourself.

3. Don't be greedy for the fine food he serves; he may be trying to trick you.

4. Be wise enough not to wear yourself out trying to get rich.

5. Your money can be gone in a flash, as if it had grown wings and flown away like an eagle.

6. Don't eat at the table of a stingy person or be greedy for the fine food he serves.
