Sirach 31:17-19

Good News Translation

     ¹⁷ It's good manners to be the first to stop eating; stuffing yourself is offensive. ¹⁸ If there are many people present, don't try to be the first to be served. ¹⁹ A little bit is plenty for anyone with good manners. Besides, you won't be short of breath when you go to bed.
