Sirach 21:8

8 Those who build their houses with another person's money are like those who gather stones for their own burial mound.

Sirach 21:8 In-Context

6 Anyone who hates reproof walks in the footsteps of a sinner, and those who fear the Lord will turn back to him from the heart.
7 Those who are powerful in speech are widely known, but those who are thoughtful know when they slip.
8 Those who build their houses with another person's money are like those who gather stones for their own burial mound.
9 A gathering of lawless people is the same as bundled flax; their end is a flaming fire.
10 The path of sinners is made level with stones, but its end is the pit of hell.
