Ben Sira 14:6

6 No one is worse off than someone who is stingy with himself; it is a sin that brings its own punishment.

Ben Sira 14:6 In-Context

4 If you deny yourself in order to accumulate wealth, you are only accumulating it for someone else. Others will use your riches to live in luxury.

5 How can you be generous with others if you are stingy with yourself, if you are not willing to enjoy your own wealth?

6 No one is worse off than someone who is stingy with himself; it is a sin that brings its own punishment.

7 When such a person does something good, it is only by accident; his selfishness will sooner or later be evident.

8 A selfish person is evil; he turns his back on people's needs
