Sirach 29:20-22

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²⁰ The sinner and the unclean fleeth from his surety.

²¹ A sinner attributeth to himself the goods of his surety: and he that is of an unthankful mind will leave him that delivered him.

²² A man is surety for his neighbour: and when he hath lost all shame, he shall forsake him.
