Ben Sira 12:15

Listen to Ben Sira 12:15
15 An enemy speaketh sweetly with his lips, but in his heart he lieth in wait, to throw thee into a pit.

Ben Sira 12:15 In-Context

13 Who will pity an enchanter struck by a serpent, or any that come near wild beasts? so is it with him that keepeth company with a wicked man, and is involved in his sins.
14 For an hour he will abide with thee: but if thou begin to decline, he will not endure it.
15 An enemy speaketh sweetly with his lips, but in his heart he lieth in wait, to throw thee into a pit.
16 An enemy weepeth with his eyes: but if he find an opportunity he will not be satisfied with blood:
17 And if evils come upon thee, thou shalt find him there first.
