Ben Sira 29:14

Listen to Ben Sira 29:14
14 A good man will be surety for his neighbor, but a man who has lost his sense of shame will fail him.

Ben Sira 29:14 In-Context

12 Store up almsgiving in your treasury, and it will rescue you from all affliction;
13 more than a mighty shield and more than a heavy spear, it will fight on your behalf against your enemy.
14 A good man will be surety for his neighbor, but a man who has lost his sense of shame will fail him.
15 Do not forget all the kindness of your surety, for he has given his life for you.
16 A sinner will overthrow the prosperity of his surety,
