"Today a man lendeth, and tomorrow he asketh it again: such a man as this is hateful."
Im Kontext
14The gift of the fool shall do thee no good: for his eyes are sevenfold.
15He will give a few things, and upbraid much: and the opening of his mouth is the kindling of a fire.
16Today a man lendeth, and tomorrow he asketh it again: such a man as this is hateful.
17A fool shall have no friend, and there shall be no thanks for his good deeds.
18For they that eat his bread, are of a false tongue. How often, and how many will laugh him to scorn!
