| 6 | Do not eat the food of one who is stingy, and do not crave his delicacies. | Do not eat the bread of a man who is stingy; do not desire his delicacies, | Do not eat the food of a begrudging host, do not crave his delicacies; | |
| 7 | As he calculates the cost to himself, this is what he does: He tells you, |Eat and drink,| but he doesn't really mean it. | for he is like one who is inwardly calculating. “Eat and drink!” he says to you, but his heart is not with you. | for he is the kind of person who is always thinking about the cost. “Eat and drink,” he says to you, but his heart is not with you. | |
| 8 | You will vomit the little bit you have eaten and spoil your pleasant conversation. | You will vomit up the morsels that you have eaten, and waste your pleasant words. | You will vomit up the little you have eaten and will have wasted your compliments. | |
