Sirach 5:13-15
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
13 Honour and dishonour come from speaking,
and the tongue of mortals may be their downfall.
14 Do not be called double-tongued[a]
and do not lay traps with your tongue;
for shame comes to the thief,
and severe condemnation to the double-tongued.
15 In great and small matters cause no harm,[b]
