Ben Sira 19:8 In-Context

6 but one who hates gossip has less evil.

7 Never repeat a conversation, and you will lose nothing at all.

8 With friend or foe do not report it, and unless it would be a sin for you, do not reveal it;

9 for someone may have heard you and watched you, and in time will hate you.

10 Have you heard something? Let it die with you. Be brave, it will not make you burst!
