← Proverbs

---

• A. 2 And put a knife to thy throat, if thou be a man given to appetite

• B. 3 Be not desirous of his dainties:

• C. 3 for they are deceitful meat.

• D. 4-5 Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not?

• E. 5 for riches certainly make themselves wings;

• D'. 5 they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.

• C'. 6 Eat thou not the bread of him that hath an evil eye,

• B'. 6 neither desire thou his dainty meats:

• A'. 7 For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.
