5 Will you set your eyes on that which is not?For riches certainly make themselves wings;They fly away like an eagle toward heaven.
6 Do not eat the bread of a miser,Nor desire his delicacies;
7 For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.“Eat and drink!” he says to you,But his heart is not with you.
8 The morsel you have eaten, you will vomit up,And waste your pleasant words.
9 Do not speak in the hearing of a fool,For he will despise the wisdom of your words.
10 Do not remove the ancient landmark,Nor enter the fields of the fatherless;
11 For their Redeemer is mighty;He will plead their cause against you.
