Ben Sira 28:9

9 A sinful man disquieteth friends, and maketh debate among them that be at peace.

Ben Sira 28:9 In-Context

7 Remember the commandments, and bear no malice toward thy neighbor; remember the covenant of the Highest, and overlook ignorance.
8 Abstain from strife, and thou shalt diminish thy sins; for a furious man will kindle strife.
9 A sinful man disquieteth friends, and maketh debate among them that be at peace.
10 As the matter of the fire is, so it burneth; and as a man's strength is, so is his wrath; and according to his riches his anger riseth; and the stronger they are which contend, the more they will be inflamed.
11 A hasty contention kindleth a fire, and a hasty fighting sheddeth blood.
