Sirach 31:16-18

Good News Translation

     ¹⁶ When you get your food, eat it like a human being. Don't smack and slurp; nobody can stand that. ¹⁷ It's good manners to be the first to stop eating; stuffing yourself is offensive. ¹⁸ If there are many people present, don't try to be the first to be served.
