Ecclesiasticus 29:20 Context
18Suretiship hath vndone many of good estate, and shaked them as a waue of the Sea: mightie men hath it driuen from their houses, so that they wandred among strange nations. 19A wicked man transgressing the commandements of the Lord, shall fall into suretiship: and hee that vndertaketh and followeth other mens businesse for gaine, shall fall into suits. 20Helpe thy neighbour according to thy power, and beware that thou thy selfe fall not into the same. 21The chiefe thing for life is water and bread, and clothing, and an house to couer shame. 22Better is the life of a poore man in a meane cottage, then delicate fare in another mans house.
