Sirach 20:19 In-Context

17 How many will ridicule them, and how often?
18 A slip on the pavement is preferable to a slip of the tongue; so the downfall of evil people will come quickly.
19 A disagreeable person, an untimely story— it will always be in the mouth of the uneducated.
20 Proverbs told by fools will be rejected, because they'll never tell them at their proper time.
