Sirach 29:3-5

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³ Confirm your word and keep faith with him,
    and on every occasion you will find what you need.
⁴ Many persons regard a loan as a windfall,
    and cause trouble to those who help them.
⁵ A man will kiss another’s hands until he gets a loan,
    and will lower his voice in speaking of his neighbor’s money;
but at the time for repayment he will delay,
    and will pay in words of unconcern,
    and will find fault with the time.
