Proverbs 23:3

3 Don't long for the ruler's delicacies; the food misleads.

Proverbs 23:3 In-Context

1 When you sit down to dine with a ruler, carefully consider what is in front of you.
2 Place a knife at your throat to control your appetite.
3 Don't long for the ruler's delicacies; the food misleads.
4 Don't wear yourself out trying to get rich; be smart enough to stop
5 When your eyes fly to wealth it is gone; it grows wings like an eagle and flies heavenward.
