Sirach 31:18-20
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
18 If you are seated among many persons,
do not reach out your hand before they do.
19 How ample a little is for a well-disciplined man!
He does not breathe heavily upon his bed.
20 Healthy sleep depends on moderate eating;
he rises early, and feels fit.[a]
The distress of sleeplessness and of nausea
and colic are with the glutton.
