Wisdom of Ben Sira 11:7-9
New Catholic Bible
Think before Acting, and Act Calmly
7 Do not find fault before checking out the evidence;
examine first, and then criticize.
8 Do not answer without first listening,
and do not interrupt while someone else is speaking.
9 Do not engage in arguing about something that does not concern you,
or become involved in the disputes of sinners.
