Sirach 36:22-24

Common English Bible

²² Hear, Lord, the prayer
of your household slaves
    according to your goodwill
    toward your people,
        and all those
        who live upon the earth
        will know that you are the Lord,
        the God of the ages.

²³ The stomach will accept any food,
    but one kind of food
    is better than another.
²⁴ As the palate tastes different
types of game,
    so an intelligent mind tests^[a] false words.
