Sirach 31:14-16

Common English Bible

¹⁴ Don’t reach out your hand
for whatever you see,
    and don’t crowd your dinner companion by reaching into the same bowl.
¹⁵ Put yourself in your companion’s place,
    and be considerate in everything.
¹⁶ Eat what’s put in front of you
like a normal human being,^[a]
    and don’t chew rudely,
    or you will be hated.
