23When you sit to dine with a ruler, note well what is before you,
2and put a knife to your throat if you are given to gluttony.
3Do not crave 1 his delicacies 2, for that food is deceptive 3.
4Do not wear yourself out to get rich; have the wisdom to show restraint.
5Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout 4 wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle.
6Do not eat the food of a stingy man, do not crave his delicacies;
7for he is the kind of man who is always thinking about the cost. "Eat and drink," he says to you, but his heart is not with you.
8You will vomit 5 up the little you have eaten and will have wasted your compliments.
9Do not speak to a fool, for he will scorn the wisdom of your words.
10Do not move an ancient boundary stone or encroach on the fields of the fatherless,
11for their Defender 6 is strong; he will take up their case against you.
12Apply your heart to instruction and your ears to words of knowledge.
13Do not withhold 7 discipline from a child; if you punish him with the rod, he will not die.
14Punish him with the rod and save his soul from death.
15My son, if your heart is wise, then my heart will be glad;
16my inmost being will rejoice when your lips speak what is right.
17Do not let your heart envy sinners, but always be zealous 8 for the fear of the Lord .
18There is surely a future hope for you, and your hope will not be cut off.
19Listen, my son, and be wise, and keep your heart on the right path.
20Do not join those who drink too much wine or gorge 9 themselves on meat,
21for drunkards and gluttons 10 become poor, and drowsiness 11 clothes them in rags.
22Listen to your father, who gave you life, and do not despise your mother when she is old.
23Buy the truth and do not sell it; get wisdom, discipline and understanding.
24The father of a righteous man has great joy; he who has a wise son delights in him.
25May your father and mother be glad; may she who gave you birth rejoice!
26My son, give me your heart and let your eyes keep to my ways,
27for a prostitute is a deep pit and a wayward wife is a narrow well.
28Like a bandit she lies in wait, and multiplies the unfaithful among men.
29Who has woe 12? Who has sorrow? Who has strife 13? Who has complaints? Who has needless bruises 14? Who has bloodshot eyes?
30Those who linger over wine, who go to sample bowls of mixed wine.
31Do not gaze at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly 15!
32In the end it bites like a snake and poisons like a viper 16.
33Your eyes will see strange sights and your mind imagine confusing things.
34You will be like one sleeping on the high seas, lying on top of the rigging.
35"They hit me," you will say, "but I'm not hurt! They beat me, but I don't feel it! When will I wake up so I can find another drink?"
2and put a knife to your throat if you are given to gluttony.
3Do not crave 1 his delicacies 2, for that food is deceptive 3.
4Do not wear yourself out to get rich; have the wisdom to show restraint.
5Cast but a glance at riches, and they are gone, for they will surely sprout 4 wings and fly off to the sky like an eagle.
