Proverbs 23:7

כִּ֤י כְּמוֹ שָׁעַ֣ר בְּנַפְשׁ֣וֹ כֶּן ה֑וּא אֱכֹ֥ל וּשְׁתֵ֗ה יֹ֣אמַר לָ֗ךְ וְלִבּ֥וֹ בַל עִמָּֽךְ׃
kiy kmvo shaʿar bnapshvo ken hvʾ ʾekol vshteh yoʾmar lak vlibvo bal ʿimak
King James Version (KJV)

For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.

Modern English

for he is like one who is inwardly calculating. Eat and drink! he says to you, but his heart is not with you.
