Wisdom of Ben Sira 19:9-11

New Catholic Bible

⁹ For one may hear it and mistrust you
    and in time come to hate you.
¹⁰ Have you heard a rumor? Let it die with you;
    be assured, if you hold it in, it will not cause you to burst asunder.
¹¹ A fool who has heard something suffers birth pangs
    like a woman in labor with a child.
