Sirach 21:27

27 When the ungodly curse their enemies, they curse themselves.

Sirach 21:27 In-Context

25 The lips of strangers will report these things, but the words of the prudent will be placed on a balance.

26 Fools say whatever is on their minds, but the wise remain mindful of what they say.

27 When the ungodly curse their enemies, they curse themselves.

28 Those who whisper stain themselves, and they will be hated by their neighbors.
