Ben Sira 32:9

9 Hear in silence, and for thy reverence good grace shall come to thee.

Ben Sira 32:9 In-Context

7 concert of music in a banquet wine is as a carbuncle set in gold.
8 As a signet of an emerald in a work of gold: so is the melody of music with pleasant and moderate wine.
9 Hear in silence, and for thy reverence good grace shall come to thee.
10 Young man, scarcely speak in thy own cause.
11 If thou be asked twice, let thy answer be short.
