Proverbs 23:5-7
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
5 When your eyes light upon it, it is gone;
for suddenly it takes to itself wings,
flying like an eagle toward heaven.
6 Do not eat the bread of a man who is stingy;
do not desire his delicacies;
7 for he is like one who is inwardly reckoning.[a]
“Eat and drink!” he says to you;
but his heart is not with you.
