Ecclesiasticus 13:4 Context
2Burthen not thy selfe aboue thy power, while thou liuest, and haue no fellowship with one that is mightier, and richer then thy selfe. For how agree the kettle and the earthen pot together? for if the one be smitten against the other, it shall be broken. 3The rich man hath done wrong, and yet he threatneth withall: the poore is wronged, and he must intreat also. 4If thou be for his profit, he will vse thee: but if thou haue nothing, he will forsake thee. 5If thou haue any thing, he will liue with thee, yea he will make thee bare, and will not be sorie for it. 6If he haue need of thee, hee will deceiue thee, and smile vpon thee, and put thee in hope, he will speake thee faire, and say, What wantest thou?
