Sirach 32:6-8

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁶ Where there is no hearing, pour out words, and be not lifted up out season with thy wisdom.

⁷ A concert of music in a banquet wine is as a carbuncle set in gold.

⁸ As a signet of an emerald in a work of gold: so is the melody of music with pleasant and moderate wine.
