Ben Sira 19:11

11 With such a word a fool will suffer pangs like a woman in labor with a child.

Ben Sira 19:11 In-Context

9 for some one has heard you and watched you, and when the time comes he will hate you.

10 Have you heard a word? Let it die with you. Be brave! It will not make you burst!

11 With such a word a fool will suffer pangs like a woman in labor with a child.

12 Like an arrow stuck in the flesh of the thigh, so is a word inside a fool.

13 Question a friend, perhaps he did not do it; but if he did anything, so that he may do it no more.
