Sirach 32:6-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
6 A seal of emerald in a rich setting of gold
is the melody of music with good wine.
7 Speak, you who are young, if you are obliged to,
but no more than twice and only if asked.(A)
8 Be brief; say much in few words;
be as one who knows and can still hold his tongue.(B)
