Proverbs 23:7-9
Lexham English Bible
7 For, like hair in his throat,[a] so it is.[b]
“Eat and drink!” he will say to you,
but his heart will not be with you.
8 Your morsel you have eaten, you will vomit it up,
and you will waste your pleasant words.
9 In the ears of a fool do not speak,
for he will despise the wisdom of your words.
