Ben Sira 22:13

13 Talk not much with a fool, and go not to him that hath no understanding: beware of him, lest thou have trouble, and thou shalt never be defiled with his fooleries; depart from him, and thou shalt find rest, and never be disquieted with madness.

Ben Sira 22:13 In-Context

11 Weep for the dead, for he hath lost the light; and weep for the fool, for he wanteth in understanding; make little weeping for the dead, for he is at rest; but the life of the fool is worse than death.

12 Seven days do men mourn for him that is dead; but for a fool and an ungodly man, all the days of his life.

13 Talk not much with a fool, and go not to him that hath no understanding: beware of him, lest thou have trouble, and thou shalt never be defiled with his fooleries; depart from him, and thou shalt find rest, and never be disquieted with madness.

14 What is heavier than lead? And what is the name thereof, but a fool?

15 Sand and salt and a mass of iron is easier to bear than a man without understanding.
