23:4-8
ASV
Read this passage and open each verse for the full verse feed and commentary tools.
4
Do not weary yourself to gain wealth;
Stop dwelling on it.
5
When you set your eyes on it, it is gone.
For wealth certainly makes itself wings
Like an eagle that flies toward the heavens.
6
Do not eat the bread of a selfish person;
Or desire his delicacies;
7
For as he thinks within himself, so he is.
He says to you, “Eat and drink!”
But his heart is not with you.
8
You will vomit up the morsel you have eaten
And waste your compliments.
