Sirach 11:34DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 34 of 36
"Of one spark cometh a great fire, and of one deceitful man much blood: and a sinful man lieth in wait for blood."
In context
32For as corrupted bowels send forth stinking breath, and as the partridge is brought into the cage, and as the roe into the snare: so also is the heart of the proud, and as a spy that looketh on the fall of his neighbour.
33For he lieth in wait and turneth good into evil, and on the elect he will lay a blot.
34Of one spark cometh a great fire, and of one deceitful man much blood: and a sinful man lieth in wait for blood.
35Take heed to thyself of a mischievous man, for he worketh evils: lest he bring upon thee reproach for ever.
36Receive a stranger in, and he shall overthrow thee with a whirlwind, and shall turn thee out of thy own.
