Ben Sira 23:11

11 A man that useth much swearing shall be filled with iniquity, and the plague shall never depart from his house. If he shall offend, his sin shall be upon him; and if he acknowledge not his sin, he maketh a double offense; and if he swear in vain, he shall not be innocent, but his house shall be full of calamities.

Ben Sira 23:11 In-Context

9 Accustom not thy mouth to swearing, neither become used to the naming of the Holy One.
10 For as a servant that is continually beaten shall not be without a blue mark, so he that sweareth and nameth God continually shall not be faultless.
11 A man that useth much swearing shall be filled with iniquity, and the plague shall never depart from his house. If he shall offend, his sin shall be upon him; and if he acknowledge not his sin, he maketh a double offense; and if he swear in vain, he shall not be innocent, but his house shall be full of calamities.
12 There is a word that is clothed about with death; God grant that it be not found in the heritage of Jacob! For all such things shall be far from the godly, and they shall not wallow in their sins.
13 Accustom not thy mouth to intemperate swearing, for therein is the word of sin.
