Ben Sira 21:22

22 A foolish man's foot is soon in his neighbor's house, but a man of experience is ashamed of him.

Ben Sira 21:22 In-Context

20 A fool lifteth up his voice with laughter, but a wise man doth scarce smile a little.
21 Learning is unto a wise man as an ornament of gold, and like a bracelet upon his right arm.
22 A foolish man's foot is soon in his neighbor's house, but a man of experience is ashamed of him.
23 A fool will peep in at the door into the house, but he that is well-nurtured will stand without.
24 It is the rudeness of a man to hearken at the door, but a wise man will be grieved with the disgrace.
