Sirach 31:22-24

22 My child, if you listen to what I am saying and put it into practice, one of these days you will thank me for it. Be moderate[a] in everything you do, and you will never get sick.
23 People appreciate a generous host, and he deserves their praise. 24 But everybody in town will complain about a host who is stingy with food, and their complaints are justified.
