Ben Sira 20:18

Listen to Ben Sira 20:18
18 For they that eat his bread, are of a false tongue. How often, and how many will laugh him to scorn!

Ben Sira 20:18 In-Context

16 To day a man lendeth, and to morrow he asketh it again: such a man as this is hateful.
17 A fool shall have no friend, and there shall be no thanks for his good deeds.
18 For they that eat his bread, are of a false tongue. How often, and how many will laugh him to scorn!
19 For he doth not distribute with right understanding that which was to be had: in like manner also that which was not to be had.
20 The slipping of a false tongue is as one that falleth on the pavement: so the fall of the wicked shall come speedily.
