Ecclesiasticus 37:20-22 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

20. In all thy works let the true word go before thee, and steady counsel before every action.

21. A wicked word shall change the beast: out of which four manner of things arise, good and evil, life and death: and the tongue is continually the ruler of them. There is a man that is subtle and a teacher of many, and yet is unprofitable to his own soul.

22. A skilful man hath taught many, and is sweet to his own soul.
