8 But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king's food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself.
Proverbs 23
1 When you sit down to eat with a ruler, observe carefully what is before you,2 and put a knife to your throat if you are given to appetite.3 Do not desire his delicacies, for they are deceptive food.
Proverbs 23
6 Do not eat the bread of a man who is stingy; do not desire his delicacies,7 for he is like one who is inwardly calculating. “Eat and drink!” he says to you, but his heart is not with you.
