Proverbs 23:4-8
Christian Standard Bible
4 Don’t wear yourself out to get rich;(A)
because you know better, stop!
5 As soon as your eyes fly to it, it disappears,(B)
for it makes wings for itself
and flies like an eagle to the sky.
6 Don’t eat a stingy person’s bread,[a](C)
and don’t desire his choice food,(D)
7 for it’s like someone calculating inwardly.[b](E)
“Eat and drink,” he says to you,
but his heart is not with you.(F)
8 You will vomit the little you’ve eaten
and waste your pleasant words.
