Sirach 20:22-24

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

²² One may lose his life through shame,
    or lose it because of human respect.^[a]
23 Another out of shame makes promises to a friend,
    and so makes an enemy for nothing.

²⁴ A lie is an ugly blot on a person;
    it is continually on the lips of the ignorant.
