Ben Sira 41:22

Listen to Ben Sira 41:22
22 of meddling with his maidservant -- and do not approach her bed; of abusive words, before friends -- and do not upbraid after making a gift;

Ben Sira 41:22 In-Context

20 and of silence, before those who greet you; of looking at a woman who is a harlot,
21 and of rejecting the appeal of a kinsman; of taking away some one's portion or gift, and of gazing at another man's wife;
22 of meddling with his maidservant -- and do not approach her bed; of abusive words, before friends -- and do not upbraid after making a gift;
23 of repeating and telling what you hear, and of revealing secrets. Then you will show proper shame, and will find favor with every man.
