Sirach 13:5

5 If you own anything, they will live with you; they will exhaust what you have, and they won't suffer.

Sirach 13:5 In-Context

3 Rich people inflict injury, but then act as if they're the ones who have been wronged; the poor suffer injury, but they're the ones who must apologize.
4 If you are useful to the rich, they will work with you, but if you are in need, they will abandon you.
5 If you own anything, they will live with you; they will exhaust what you have, and they won't suffer.
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.
