In context
1He that toucheth pitch shall be defiled therewith; and he that hath fellowship with a proud man shall be like unto him.
2Burden not thyself above thy power while thou livest; and have no fellowship with one that is mightier and richer than thyself: for how agree the kettle and the earthen pot together? for if the one be smitten against the other, it shall be broken.
— Sirach 13:3 —
4If thou be for his profit, he will use thee: but if thou have nothing, he will forsake thee.
5If thou have any thing, he will live with thee: yea, he will make thee bare, and will not be sorry for it.
