Proverbs
Chapters 23:6-12
Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version
6Don’t eat with selfish people. Control any desire you have for their finest foods.
7They might tell you to eat and drink all you want, but they don’t really mean it. They are the kind of people who are only thinking about the cost.
8And if you eat their food, you will get sick and be embarrassed.
9Don’t try to teach fools. They will make fun of your wise words.
10Never move an old property line, and don’t take land that belongs to orphans.
11The Lord will be against you. He is powerful and protects orphans.
12Listen to your teacher and learn all you can.
