Sirach 21:25-27
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
25 The lips of babblers speak of what is not their concern,[a]
but the words of the prudent are weighed in the balance.
26 The mind of fools is in their mouth,
but the mouth of the wise is in[b] their mind.
27 When an ungodly person curses an adversary,[c]
he curses himself.
