Sirach 8:9-11

Wycliffe Bible

⁹ The telling of elder men pass not (by) thee [or Pass not beside thee the telling of elders]; for they have learned of (or from) their fathers. For of (or from) them thou shalt learn understanding; and in the time of need thou shalt give [an] answer.

¹⁰ Kindle thou not the coals of sinners, and reprove them; and be thou not burnt with the flame of [the] fire of their sins.

¹¹ Stand thou not against the face of a man full of despising [or the face of the strifeful]; lest he sit as an espyer to thy mouth.
