Proverbs 23:7-11
English Standard Version
7 for he is like one who is inwardly calculating.[a]
“Eat and drink!” he says to you,
but his (A)heart is not with you.
8 You will vomit up the morsels that you have eaten,
and waste your pleasant words.
9 Do not speak in the hearing of a fool,
for he will despise the good sense of your words.
10 (B)Do not move an ancient landmark
or enter the fields of the fatherless,
11 for their (C)Redeemer is strong;
he will (D)plead their cause against you.
