Ben Sira 29:9

Listen to Ben Sira 29:9
9 And he will pay him with reproaches and curses, and instead of honour and good turn will repay him injuries.

Ben Sira 29:9 In-Context

7 And if he be able to pay, he will stand off, he will scarce pay one half, and will count it as if he had found it:
8 But if not, he will defraud him of his money, and he shall get him for an enemy without cause:
9 And he will pay him with reproaches and curses, and instead of honour and good turn will repay him injuries.
10 Many have refused to lend, not out of wickedness, but they were afraid to be defrauded without cause.
11 But yet towards the poor be thou more hearty, and delay not to shew him mercy.
