6 Don’t eat the food of selfish people;don’t be greedy for their fine foods.
7 Selfish people are always worryingabout how much the food costs.They tell you, “Eat and drink,”but they don’t really mean it.
8 You will throw up the little you have eaten,and you will have wasted your kind words.
9 Don’t speak to fools;they will only ignore your wise words.
10 Don’t move an old stone that marks a border,and don’t take fields that belong to orphans.
11 God, their defender, is strong;he will take their side against you.
12 Remember what you are taught,and listen carefully to words of knowledge.
