Ben Sira 12:7

7 Give to good people, but do not help sinners.

Ben Sira 12:7 In-Context

5 Do good to humble people, but don't give anything to those who are not devout. Don't give them food, or they will use your kindness against you. Every good thing you do for such people will bring you twice as much trouble in return.

6 The Most High himself hates sinners, and he will punish them.

7 Give to good people, but do not help sinners.

8 When things are going well, it is hard to tell who your real friends are, but in hard times you can recognize your enemies;

9 even your friends will leave you then. But when you are successful, your enemies will act like friends.
