Sirach 22:21

¹⁹He that pricketh the eye will make tears to fall: and he that pricketh the heart maketh it to shew her knowledge.

²⁰Whoso casteth a stone at the birds frayeth them away: and he that upbraideth his friend breaketh friendship.

— Sirach 22:21 —

²²If thou hast opened thy mouth against thy friend, fear not; for there may be a reconciliation: except for upbraiding, or pride, or disclosing of secrets, or a treacherous wound: for for these things every friend will depart.

²³Be faithful to thy neighbour in his poverty, that thou mayest rejoice in his prosperity: abide stedfast unto him in the time of his trouble, that thou mayest be heir with him in his heritage: for a mean estate is not always to be contemned: nor the rich that is foolish to be had in admiration.
