Proverbs 23:6-11 Good News Bible (GNB)

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

7. “Come on and have some more,” he says, but he doesn't mean it. What he thinks is what he really is.

8. You will vomit up what you have eaten, and all your flattery will be wasted.

9. Don't try to talk sense to a fool; he can't appreciate it.

10. Never move an old boundary mark or take over land owned by orphans.

11. The Lord is their powerful defender, and he will argue their case against you.
