Honey, especially wild honey, is a delicious treat. But be careful and measure it! Know that excess is harmful. This rule applies to all areas of life. When you continue to eat, you will feel sick in the end. When you continue to gather stuff, you will drown in your possessions. When you talk too much, no one wants to listen to you anymore. Therefore, it is wise to have and show self-control. Be a master over your longing to acquire ever more things. It also means that you must be content with what you truly need in life.
16 If you have found honey, eat only enough for you, lest you have your fill of it and vomit it.
