Ecclesiasticus 11:32 Context
30Like as a Partrich taken [and kept] in a cage, so is the heart of the proud; and like as a spie, watcheth hee for thy fall. 31For hee lieth in wait, and turneth good into euill, and in things worthy praise, will lay blame vpon thee. 32Of a sparke of fire, a heape of coales is kindled: and a sinnefull man layeth waite for blood. 33Take heed of a mischieuous man, (for hee worketh wickednesse) lest hee bring vpon thee a perpetuall blot. 34Receiue a stranger into thine house, and hee will disturbe thee, and turne thee out of thine owne.
