CATHOLIC BIBLE SIRACH 39. 27
Concerning Moderation
My child, test yourself while You live;
see
what is bad for You and do not give in to it.
For not everything is
good for everyone,
and no one enjoys everything.
Do not be greedy for every delicacy,
and DO not Eat without restraint;
for
overeating brings sickness,
and
gluttony leads to nausea.
Manv have died of gluttony,
but
the one who guards
against
it Prolongs his life'
