Sirach 20:15-17

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁵ He will give a few things, and upbraid much: and the opening of his mouth is the kindling of a fire.

¹⁶ To day a man lendeth, and to morrow he asketh it again: such a man as this is hateful.

¹⁷ A fool shall have no friend, and there shall be no thanks for his good deeds.
