Sirach 32:8-10
Good News Translation
8 Come to the point and say it all in a few words. Show that you are well-informed, but stay quiet. 9 Don't treat important people as if you were their equal and don't make a nuisance of yourself by asking them a lot of questions.[a] 10 The reputation of a modest person goes before him, as lightning before thunder.
