In context

23Be faithful to thy neighbor in his poverty, That thou mayest rejoice in his prosperity: Abide steadfast unto him in the time of his trouble, That thou mayest be heir with him in his heritage.

24As the vapor and smoke of a furnace goeth before the fire; So reviling before blood.

— Sirach 22:25 —

26And if any evil happen unto me by him, Everyone that heareth it will beware of him.

27Who shall set a watch before my mouth, And a seal of wisdom upon my lips, That I fall not suddenly by them, And that my tongue destroy me not?
