Sirach 37:17-19

Wycliffe Bible

¹⁷ A wicked, [or A shrewd, (or A depraved)] word shall change the heart,

¹⁸ of which heart four parts come forth; good and evil, life and death; and a busy tongue is lord of those. [of the which four parts spring; good and evil, life and death; and the lordshipper of these is a busy tongue.]

¹⁹ A wise man hath taught many men, and (or but) he is (not) sweet to his (own) soul.
