Sirach 19:9-11

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

⁹ for someone may have heard you and watched you,
    and in time will hate you.
¹⁰ Have you heard something? Let it die with you.
    Be brave, it will not make you burst!
¹¹ Having heard something, the fool suffers birth-pangs
    like a woman in labour with a child.
