Sirach 31:21

Listen to Sirach 31:21
21 If you've overstuffed yourself, get up, vomit far away, and you will feel better.

Sirach 31:21 In-Context

19 A little food is more than enough for well-educated people! They won't gasp for breath when they lie down to sleep.
20 Healthy sleep depends on not stuffing yourself. Such people arise early and feel good. The gluttons suffer the pains of insomnia, nausea, and colic.
21 If you've overstuffed yourself, get up, vomit far away, and you will feel better.
22 Listen to me, my child, and don't show me contempt, and in the end you will understand what I'm saying; be careful in everything you do, and you will never fall sick.
23 People will bless those who are generous with bread; they give reliable testimony to the excellence of such people.
