Sirach 27:18

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 neighbour 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.
