Sirach 29:24

24 Going from house to house is a miserable life, and wherever you are an immigrant, don't open your mouth.

Sirach 29:24 In-Context

22 Better is the life of the poor under a shelter of rafters than magnificent food in foreign countries.
23 Be content with a little or a lot, and you will never be put down for being a sojourner.
24 Going from house to house is a miserable life, and wherever you are an immigrant, don't open your mouth.
25 You will entertain and provide drink without thanks, and you will hear bitter words such as these:
26 "Come here, foreigner, prepare a table; and if there's something in your hand, feed it to me.
