Proverbs 23:2

King James 2000

And put a knife to your throat, if you are a man given to appetite.

See the chapter Copy

And he went, and took, and brought them to his mother: and his mother made savory food, such as his father loved.

When you sit to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what is before you:

Be not among winebibbers; among gluttonous eaters of meat:

But I roughly treat my body, and bring it into subjection: lest that by any means, when I have preached to others, I myself should be disqualified.

Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
