Ben Sira 29:25 In-Context

23 Be it little or much, hold thee contented, that thou hear not the reproach of thy house.

24 For it is a miserable life to go from house to house; for where thou art a stranger, thou darest not open thy mouth.

25 Thou shalt entertain and feast and have no thanks; moreover thou shalt hear bitter words:

26 "Come, thou stranger, and furnish a table, and feed me from what thou hast ready."

27 "Give place, thou stranger, to an honorable man; my brother cometh to be lodged, and I have need of mine house."
