Ben Sira 11:29

29 Bring not every man into thine house, for the deceitful man hath many snares.

Ben Sira 11:29 In-Context

27 The affliction of an hour maketh a man forget pleasure, and in his end his deeds shall be discovered.

28 Judge none blessed before his death, for a man shall be known in his children.

29 Bring not every man into thine house, for the deceitful man hath many snares.

30 As a partridge taken and kept in a cage, so is the heart of the proud; and as a spy, watcheth he for thy fall.

31 For he lieth in wait, and turneth good into evil, and in things worthy of praise will lay blame upon thee.
