Do not trust your own cleverness

Proverbs 23:1-11
7:When you sit to dine with a ruler, note well what is before you, and put a knife to your throat.
8: Do not wear yourself out to get rich; do not trust your own cleverness.
9: Do not eat the food of a begrudging host, do not crave his delicacies; for he is the kind of person who is always thinking about the cost.
10:Do not speak to fools, for they will scorn your prudent words.
11: Do not move an ancient boundary stone or encroach(侵犯) on the fields of the fatherless. for their Defender is strong.
Why?
For the ruler has power to put person to dead, so be careful what you are talking.
Do not show what you rich is and trust your own cleverness, it is put you in danger and fool.
Begrudging host will thingking about the cost so do not eat the food from them.
Speak to fools, they will scorn your prudent words, they do not understand and hate you.
Do not offend other's property.  But love them expecial to the fatherless.
How?
God is love to love others, show the humility and proper words to others, this is wisdom and prucent.
