Ben Sira 37:28

28 For all things are not profitable for all men, neither hath every soul pleasure in every thing.

Ben Sira 37:28 In-Context

26 A wise man shall inherit glory among his people, and his name shall be perpetual.
27 My son, prove thy soul in thy life and see what is evil for it, and give not that unto it.
28 For all things are not profitable for all men, neither hath every soul pleasure in every thing.
29 Be not insatiable in any dainty thing, nor too greedy for meats;
30 for excess of meats bringeth sickness, and surfeiting will turn into ill temper.
