Sirach 29:15-17

Good News Translation

¹⁵ If someone does this favor for you, don't forget it; he has risked his good name for you. ¹⁶ There are some ungrateful sinners who abandon those who stand behind them, and they cause them loss of property. ¹⁷ Guaranteeing loans has ruined many prosperous people and caused them unsettling storms of trouble.
