Sirach 13:6-8
Common English Bible
6 If they need you, they will deceive you
and smile at you and give you hope;
they will speak nicely to you and say,
“What do you need?”
7 They will embarrass you
with their fine foods,
until they have cleaned you out
two or three times over.
In the end they will mock you,
and after these things,
they will see you and abandon you
and shake their heads at you.
8 Take care that you don’t go astray,
and don’t be humiliated
by your own foolishness.
