In context
16Whoso discovereth secrets loseth his credit; And shall never find friend to his mind.
17Love thy friend, and be faithful unto him: But if thou betrayest his secrets, follow no more after him.
— Sirach 27:18 —
19As one that letteth a bird go out of his hand, So hast thou let thy neighbor go, and shalt not get him again.
20Follow after him no more, for he is too far off; He is as a roe escaped out of the snare.
