Ben Sira 11:27-34

Listen to Ben Sira 11:27-34
27 The affliction of an hour maketh a man forget pleasure, and in his end his deeds shall be discovered.
28 Judge none blessed before his death, for a man shall be known in his children.
29 Bring not every man into thine house, for the deceitful man hath many snares.
30 As a partridge taken and kept in a cage, so is the heart of the proud; and as a spy, watcheth he for thy fall.
31 For he lieth in wait, and turneth good into evil, and in things worthy of praise will lay blame upon thee.
32 Of a spark of fire a heap of coals is kindled, and a sinful man lieth in wait for blood.
33 Take heed of a mischievous man, for he worketh wickedness, lest he bring upon thee a perpetual blot.
34 Receive a stranger into thine house, and he will disturb thee, and turn thee out of thine own.
