web@Proverbs:23:3 @ Don't be desirous of his dainties, since they are deceitful food.
web@Proverbs:23:5 @ Why do you set your eyes on that which is not? For it certainly sprouts wings like an eagle and flies in the sky.
web@Proverbs:23:6 @ Don't eat the food of him who has a stingy eye, and don't crave his delicacies:
web@Proverbs:23:7 @ for as he thinks about the cost, so he is. "Eat and drink!" he says to you, but his heart is not with you.
web@Proverbs:23:8 @ The morsel which you have eaten you shall vomit up, and lose your good words.
web@Proverbs:23:9 @ Don't speak in the ears of a fool, for he will despise the wisdom of your words.
web@Proverbs:23:10 @ Don't move the ancient boundary stone. Don't encroach on the fields of the fatherless:
web@Proverbs:23:12 @ Apply your heart to instruction, and your ears to the words of knowledge.
web@Proverbs:23:13 @ Don't withhold correction from a child. If you punish him with the rod, he will not die.

web@Proverbs:23:21 @ for the drunkard and the glutton shall become poor; and drowsiness clothes them in rags.
web@Proverbs:23:22 @ Listen to your father who gave you life, and don't despise your mother when she is old.
web@Proverbs:23:23 @ Buy the truth, and don't sell it. Get wisdom, discipline, and understanding.
web@Proverbs:23:24 @ The father of the righteous has great joy. Whoever fathers a wise child delights in him.
web@Proverbs:23:25 @ Let your father and your mother be glad! Let her who bore you rejoice!
web@Proverbs:23:28 @ Yes, she lies in wait like a robber, and increases the unfaithful among men.
web@Proverbs:23:29 @ Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has strife? Who has complaints? Who has needless bruises? Who has bloodshot eyes?
web@Proverbs:23:30 @ Those who stay long at the wine; those who go to seek out mixed wine.
web@Proverbs:23:31 @ Don't look at the wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup, when it goes down smoothly.
web@Proverbs:23:33 @ Your eyes will see strange things, and your mind will imagine confusing things.
web@Proverbs:23:34 @ Yes, you will be as he who lies down in the midst of the sea, or as he who lies on top of the rigging:
web@Proverbs:23:35 @ "They hit me, and I was not hurt! They beat me, and I don't feel it! When will I wake up? I can do it again. I can find another."
