Ben Sira 21:22

22 A stupid person will peep into someone's house through the door and then march right in, but someone with experience and good manners will have enough respect to wait outside.

Ben Sira 21:22 In-Context

20 but to a sensible person, it is like gold bracelets. An intelligent person will smile quietly while a fool roars with laughter.

22 A stupid person will peep into someone's house through the door and then march right in, but someone with experience and good manners will have enough respect to wait outside.

24 Eavesdropping at doors is bad manners, and anyone with a sense of decency would be ashamed to do it.
