5 Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky.
6 Don't eat the food of him who has a stingy eye, And don't crave his delicacies:
7 For as he thinks about the cost, so he is. 'Eat and drink!' he says to you, But his heart is not with you.
8 The morsel which you have eaten you shall vomit up, And lose your good words.
9 Don't speak in the ears of a fool, For he will despise the wisdom of your words.
