Sirach 7:13-16 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

13. Do not love a lie against your brother, nor should you act the same toward your friend.

14. Do not be willing to devise a lie of any kind. For the practice of lying is not good.

15. Do not choose to be verbose among a multitude of elders, and you should not repeat the words of your prayers.

16. You should not hate laborious works, nor the rustic life created by the Most High.
