Sirach 13:6-8
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
6 When he needs you he will deceive you,
he will smile at you and give you hope.
He will speak to you kindly and say, “What do you need?”
7 He will shame you with his foods,
until he has drained you two or three times;
and finally he will deride you.
Should he see you afterwards, he will forsake you,
and shake his head at you.
8 Take care not to be led astray,
and not to be humiliated in your feasting.[a]
