Sirach 8:5 CPDV

³  For gold and silver have destroyed many, and have reached and corrupted even the hearts of kings.

⁴  You should not quarrel with a man who is full of words, for you should not cast wood upon his fire.

⁵  You should not confide in an ignorant man, lest he speak evil about your family.

⁶  You should not despise a man who turns himself away from sin, nor reproach him with it. Remember that we are all subject to correction.

⁷  You should not spurn a man in his old age. For we are all subject to growing old.
