Ecclesiasticus 20:3 Context
1There is a reproofe that is not comely: againe some man holdeth his tongue, and he is wise. 2It is much better to reprooue, then to be angry secretly, and he that confesseth his fault, shall be preserued from hurt. 3How good is it when thou art reproued, to shew repentance? for so shalt thou escape wilfull sinne. 4As is the lust of an Eunuch to defloure a virgine; so is he that executeth iudgement with violence. 5There is one that keepeth silence and is found wise: and another by much babling becommeth hatefull.
