Ecclesiasticus 23:6 Context
3Lest mine ignorances increase, and my sins abound to my destruction, and I fall before mine adversaries, and mine enemy rejoice over me, whose hope is far from thy mercy. 4O Lord, Father and God of my life, give me not a proud look, but turn away from thy servants always a haughty mind. 5Turn away from me vain hopes and concupiscence, and thou shalt hold him up that is desirous always to serve thee. 6Let not the greediness of the belly nor lust of the flesh take hold of me; and give not over me thy servant into an impudent mind. 7Hear, O ye children, the discipline of the mouth: he that keepeth it shall never be taken in his lips. 8The sinner shall be left in his foolishness: both the evil speaker and the proud shall fall thereby. 9Accustom not thy mouth to swearing; neither use thyself to the naming of the Holy One.
