Ecclesiasticus 21:24 Context

²²A foolish mans foote is soone in his [neighbours] house: but a man of experience is ashamed of him. ²³A foole will peepe in at the doore into the house, but he that is well nurtured, will stand without. ²⁴It is the rudenesse of a man to hearken at the doore: but a wise man will be grieued with the disgrace. ²⁵The lips of talkers will bee telling such things as pertaine not vnto them: but the words of such as haue vnderstanding, are weighed in the ballance. ²⁶The heart of fooles is in their mouth, but the mouth of the wise is in their heart.
