Ben Sira 32:11

11 Leave in good time and do not be the last; go home quickly and do not linger.

Ben Sira 32:11 In-Context

9 Among the great do not act as their equal; and when another is speaking, do not babble.
10 Lightning travels ahead of the thunder, and approval goes before one who is modest.
11 Leave in good time and do not be the last; go home quickly and do not linger.
12 Amuse yourself there to your heart's content, but do not sin through proud speech.
13 But above all bless your Maker, who fills you with his good gifts.
