3 ¹Do not desire his delicacies, for they are deceptive food.

4 ²Do not toil to acquire wealth; ³be discerning enough to desist.

5 When your eyes light on it, it is gone, ⁴for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven.

6 ⁵Do not eat the bread of a man who is ⁶stingy;^a ⁷do not desire his delicacies,

7 for he is like one who is inwardly calculating.^b "Eat and drink!" he says to you, but his ⁸heart is not with you.

8 You will vomit up the morsels that you have eaten, and waste your pleasant words.

9 Do not speak in the hearing of a fool, for he will despise the good sense of your words.

10 ⁹Do not move an ancient landmark or enter the fields of the fatherless,

11 for their ¹⁰Redeemer is strong; he will ¹¹plead their cause against you.

12 Apply your heart to instruction and your ear to words of knowledge.

13 Do not withhold ¹²discipline from a child; ¹³if you strike him with a rod, he will not die.

14 If you strike him with the rod, you will ¹⁴save his soul from Sheol.

15 ¹⁵My son, if your heart is wise, my heart too will be glad.

16 My ¹⁶inmost being^c will exult when your lips speak ¹⁷what is right.

17 Let not your heart ¹⁸envy sinners, but continue in ¹⁹the fear of the LORD all the day.

18 Surely ²⁰there is a future, and your ²¹hope will not be cut off.

19 Hear, my son, and ²²be wise, and ²³direct your heart in the way.

20 Be not among ²⁴drunkards^d or among ²⁵gluttonous eaters of meat,

21 for the drunkard and the glutton will come to poverty, and ²⁶slumber will clothe them with rags

22 ²⁷Listen to your father who gave you life, ²⁸and do not despise your mother when she is old.

23 ²⁹Buy truth, and do not sell it; buy wisdom, instruction, and understanding.
