12 Are you seated at the table of the great?Bring to it no greedy gullet,Nor say, “How much food there is here!”
13 Remember that the greedy eye is evil.What has been created more greedy than the eye?Therefore, it weeps for any cause.
15 Recognize that your neighbor feels as you do,and keep in mind everything you dislike.
14 Toward what he looks at, do not put out a hand;nor reach for the same dish when he does.
16 Eat, like anyone else, what is set before you,but do not eat greedily, lest you be despised.
17 Be the first to stop, as befits good manners;and do not gorge yourself, lest you give offense.
18 If there are many with you at table,do not be the first to stretch out your hand.
