Sirach 31:17

17 Be the first to stop, to show your good breeding, and don't be gluttonous; otherwise, you will offend.

Sirach 31:17 In-Context

15 Put yourself in your companion's place, and be considerate in everything.

16 Eat what's put in front of you like a normal human being, and don't chew rudely, or you will be hated.

17 Be the first to stop, to show your good breeding, and don't be gluttonous; otherwise, you will offend.

18 If you have been seated with a lot of people, don't help yourself before they do.

19 A little food is more than enough for well-educated people! They won't gasp for breath when they lie down to sleep.
