Proverbs 23:6-8
New International Version - UK
Saying 9
6 Do not eat the food of a stingy host,
do not crave his delicacies;
7 for he is the kind of person
who is always thinking about the cost.[a]
‘Eat and drink,’ he says to you,
but his heart is not with you.
8 You will vomit up the little you have eaten
and will have wasted your compliments.
