for as he thinks about the cost, so he is.
“Eat and drink!”
he says to you, but his heart is not with you.
You will vomit up the morsel which you have eaten and waste your pleasant words.
Don’t speak in the ears of a fool, for he will despise the wisdom of your words.
Don’t move the ancient boundary stone.
Don’t encroach on the fields of the fatherless, for their Defender is strong.
He will plead their case against you.
Apply your heart to instruction, and your ears to the words of knowledge.
