Proverbs 23:1-5

When you sit down to dine with a ruler, Consider carefully what is before you,

And put a knife to your throat If you are a person of great appetite.

Do not desire his delicacies, For it is deceptive food.

Do not weary yourself to gain wealth; Stop dwelling on it.

When you set your eyes on it, it is gone. For wealth certainly makes itself wings Like an eagle that flies toward the heavens.
