Sirach 31:12-14

Revised Standard Version

¹² Are you seated at the table of a great man?^[a]
    Do not be greedy^[b] at it,
    and do not say, “There is certainly much upon it!”
¹³ Remember that a greedy^[c] eye is a bad thing.
    What has been created more greedy^[d] than the eye?
    Therefore it sheds tears from every face.
¹⁴ Do not reach out your hand for everything you see,
    and do not crowd your neighbor^[e] at the dish.
