Sirach 28:13-15
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
13 Curse the gossips and the double-tongued,
for they destroy the peace of many.(A)
14 Slander[a] has shaken many
and scattered them from nation to nation;
it has destroyed strong cities
and overturned the houses of the great.
15 Slander[b] has driven courageous women from their homes
and deprived them of the fruit of their toil.
