Proverbs 23:6–7

Do not eat the food of a begrudging host,

do not crave his delicacies;

for he is the kind of person

who is always thinking about the cost.

“Eat and drink,” he says to you,

but his heart is not with you.

Don’t eat a stingy person’s bread,

and don’t desire his choice food,

for it’s like someone calculating inwardly.

“Eat and drink,” he says to you,

but his heart is not with you.

Don’t eat with people who are stingy;

don’t desire their delicacies.

They are always thinking about how much it costs.

“Eat and drink,” they say, but they don’t mean it.

Do not eat the bread of the stingy,

and do not desire his delicacies.

For, like hair in his throat, so it is.

“Eat and drink!” he will say to you,

but his heart will not be with you.

Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye,

Neither desire thou his dainty meats:

For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he:

Eat and drink, saith he to thee;

But his heart is not with thee.
