Proverbs 23:8 Context
6Eate thou not the bread of him that hath an euill eye, neither desire thou his dainty meates. 7For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eate, and drinke, sayth he to thee, but his heart is not with thee. 8The morsell which thou hast eaten, shalt thou vomite vp, and loose thy sweete words. 9Speake not in the eares of a foole: for hee will despise the wisedome of thy words. 10Remoue not the old landmarke; and enter not into the fields of the fatherlesse.
