Proverbs 23:17,18

Perhaps you are jealous because some evil people are wealthy. Or they are famous, or important (Psalms 73:3-5). But you must desire the right things. So do not be jealous when you see evil people. Instead, think about God. Remember that God loves you. Remember the things that God wants you to do. And God will reward you.

v19 Listen, my son! Be wise!

Desire the right things!

v20 Avoid the company of those who spend their time with too much food and drink.

v21 People that love food and wine become poor.

They become sleepy, so that they waste everything.
