Sirach 31:16-18
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
16 Eat what is set before you like a well-bred person,[a]
and do not chew greedily, or you will give offence.
17 Be the first to stop, as befits good manners,
and do not be insatiable, or you will give offence.
18 If you are seated among many others,
do not help yourself[b] before they do.
