In context
30Like as a partridge taken and kept in a cage, so is the heart of the proud: And like as a spy, watcheth he for thy fall:
31For he lieth in wait, and turneth good into evil, And in things worthy praise will lay blame upon thee.
— Sirach 11:32 —
33Take heed of a mischievous man, for he worketh wickedness: Lest he bring upon thee a perpetual blot.
34Receive a stranger into thy house, and he will disturb thee, And turn thee out of thine own.
