When you receive other people's praise which is not due to you beware of the intention behind their words.

当你受到别人的赞美，而这个赞美你却不应得时，就要留心他们话里的意图。

They are probably not sincere and have an ulterior motive¹.

也许他们并不诚挚，而且可能别有用心。

As the saying goes, "He who praises you for what you lack wishes to take from you what you have. "

俗话说：“凡是赞美你所欠缺的人就是要夺走你所拥有的人。”
