Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house,.... Not but that it is commendable to be neighbourly and friendly, or for one neighbour to visit another; but then it should not be very frequent; a man should not be always or often at his neighbour's house.
So the words may be rendered, "make thy foot precious" or "rare at thy neighbour's house" ; be seldom there;lest he be weary of thee, and [so] hate thee; or, "lest he be sated with thee" ; filled with thy company to a loathing of it, as the stomach with eating too much honey, and so his friendship be turned into hatred.
