Ben Sira 8:11

11 Rise not up in anger at the presence of an injurious person, lest he lie in wait to entrap thee in thy words.

Ben Sira 8:11 In-Context

9 Miss not the discourse of the elders, for they also learned from their fathers; and from them thou shalt learn understanding, and to give answer as need requireth.

10 Kindle not the coals of a sinner, lest thou be burned with the flame of his fire.

11 Rise not up in anger at the presence of an injurious person, lest he lie in wait to entrap thee in thy words.

12 Lend not unto him that is mightier than thyself; for if thou lendest to him, count it but lost.

13 Be not surety beyond thy power; for if thou be surety, take care to pay it.
