Sirach 22:11
Source: Septuagint
11Weep for the dead, for he hath lost the light: And weep for the fool, for he wanteth understanding: Make little weeping for the dead, for he is at rest: But the life of the fool is worse than death.

9Whoso teacheth a fool is as one that glueth a potsherd together, And as he that waketh one from a sound sleep.
10He that telleth a tale to a fool speaketh to one in a slumber: When he hath told his tale, he will say, What is the matter?
— Sirach 22:11 —
12Seven days do men mourn for him that is dead; But for a fool and an ungodly man all the days of his life.
13Talk not much with a fool, And go not to him that hath no understanding: Beware of him, lest thou have trouble, And thou shalt never be defiled with his fooleries: Depart from him, and thou shalt find rest, And never be disquieted with madness.
