Ben Sira 4:23

23 Do not refrain from speaking at the crucial time, and do not hide your wisdom.

Ben Sira 4:23 In-Context

21 For there is a shame which brings sin, and there is a shame which is glory and favor.

22 Do not show partiality, to your own harm, or deference, to your downfall.

23 Do not refrain from speaking at the crucial time, and do not hide your wisdom.

24 For wisdom is known through speech, and education through the words of the tongue.

25 Never speak against the truth, but be mindful of your ignorance.
