Sirach 29:30DRA
Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 30 of 34
"It is a miserable life to go as a guest from house to house: for where a man is a stranger, he shall not deal confidently, nor open his mouth."
In context
28Better is the poor man’s fare under a roof of boards, than sumptuous cheer abroad in another man’s house.
29Be contented with little instead of much, and thou shalt not hear the reproach of going abroad.
30It is a miserable life to go as a guest from house to house: for where a man is a stranger, he shall not deal confidently, nor open his mouth.
31He shall entertain and feed, and give drink to the unthankful, and moreover he shall hear bitter words.
32Go, stranger, and furnish the table, and give others to eat what thou hast in thy hand.
