When thou sittest to eat with a ruler, consider diligently what [is] before thee:

Eat thou not the bread of [him that hath] an evil eye, neither desire thou his dainties:

For as he thinketh in his heart, so [is] he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart [is] not with thee.

Be not among wine-bibbers; among riotous eaters of flesh:
21 Aka tinte vahe'ene rama'a ne'zama ne' vahe'mo'za zamunte omne vahe manigahaze. Hagi zamavu'ma mase vava vahera, kukena zamimo'a tagato tagatu hugahie.
For the drunkard and the glutton shall come to poverty: and drowsiness shall clothe [a man] with rags.

For a lewd woman [is] a deep ditch; and a strange woman [is] a narrow pit.

Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth its color in the cup, [when] it moveth itself aright.

Thy eyes shall behold strange women, and thy heart shall utter perverse things.

And thou shalt be as he that lieth down in the midst of the sea, or as he that lieth upon the top of a mast.
35 Anage hugahane, nahazanagi nata onkrine hunka nehunka, kanona namizanagi antahina kena osu'no'e hugahane. Hanki nagrama ete otisuna, mago'ane ana tina negahue nehane.
They have stricken me, [wilt thou say], [and] I was not sick; they have beaten me, [and] I felt [it] not: when shall I awake? I will seek it yet again.
