Sirach 13:6

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?"

Sirach 13:6 In-Context

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.
8 Take care that you don't go astray, and don't be humiliated by your own foolishness.
