“Every friend says.
‘I too am a friend.’
But some friends
Are friends only in name.
Is it not a sorrow
Like death itself?
A dear friend
Turns into an enmity.
O inclination to evil!
Why were you formed?
Why do you cover the land
With deceit?
Some companions rejoice
In the happiness of a friend.
But in times of trouble,
They are against him.
Some companions help a friend
For their stomach’s sake.
Yet in battle
They will carry his shield.
Do not forget a friend
In your heart
During the battle.
Do not be unmindful of him
When you distribute your spoils.”
Sirach reminds us about false friends. Some friends are such in name only. Sometimes a friend turns into an enemy. Sirach wondered why there was this inclination to evil. Why was the land covered with deceit? Some companions are happy when you are happy. However, in troubled times, they may be against you. Some people help for the sake of a good meal, while others will go to battle with you. You should not forget the friends who went out to battle with you, especially when you distribute the rewards or spoils of victory.
