Ecclesiasticus 13:5

Ecclesiasticus 13:5 Context

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? ⁷And hee will shame thee by his meates, vntill he haue drawen thee drie twice or thrice, and at the last hee will laugh thee to scorne: afterward when he seeth thee, he will forsake thee, and shake his head at thee.
