Ecclesiasticus 21:26 Context
24It is the rudenesse of a man to hearken at the doore: but a wise man will be grieued with the disgrace. 25The lips of talkers will bee telling such things as pertaine not vnto them: but the words of such as haue vnderstanding, are weighed in the ballance. 26The heart of fooles is in their mouth, but the mouth of the wise is in their heart. 27When the vngodly curseth Satan, he curseth his owne soule. 28A whisperer defileth his owne soule, and is hated wheresoeuer hee dwelleth.
