Ecclesiasticus 29:23 Context
21The chiefe thing for life is water and bread, and clothing, and an house to couer shame. 22Better is the life of a poore man in a meane cottage, then delicate fare in another mans house. 23Be it little or much, holde thee contented, that thou heare not the reproch of thy house. 24For it is a miserable life to goe from house to house: for where thou art a stranger, thou darest not open thy mouth. 25Thou shalt entertaine and feast, and haue no thankes: moreouer, thou shalt heare bitter words.
