Ben Sira 27:15

15 The speech that sweareth much shall make the hair of the head stand upright: and its irreverence shall make one stop his ears.

Ben Sira 27:15 In-Context

13 In the midst of the unwise keep in the word till its time: but be continually among men that think.
14 The discourse of sinners is hateful, and their laughter is at the pleasures of sin.
15 The speech that sweareth much shall make the hair of the head stand upright: and its irreverence shall make one stop his ears.
16 Is the quarrels of the proud is the shedding of blood: and their cursing is a grievous hearing.
17 He that discloseth the secret of a friend loseth his credit, and shall never find a friend to his mind.
