Sirach 4:19-21
Wycliffe Bible

20 Son, keep thou (the) time, and eschew thou from evil. Be thou not ashamed (even) for thy life to say (the) truth; [Son, wait (on the) time, and shun away from evil. For thy soul, or life, be thou not confounded to say (the) sooth;]
21 for why there is shame that bringeth sin, and there is shame that bringeth glory and grace.
