Whoever loves pleasure will be a poor man; whoever loves wine and oil will not grow rich.
In context
15Doing justice is joy to the righteous, but ruin to those who do wrong. 16A man who strays from the way of good sense will come to rest in the assembly of the shades. 17Whoever loves pleasure will be a poor man; whoever loves wine and oil will not grow rich. 18The wicked is a ransom for the righteous, and the treacherous takes the place of the upright. 19Better to live in a desert land than with a quarrelsome and fretful wife.
