Sirach 4:20-24

20 Use your time well; guard yourself from evil, and bring upon no shame. 21 There is a sense of shame laden with guilt, and a shame that merits honor and respect.  22 Show no favoritism to your own discredit; let no one intimidate you to your own downfall. 23  Refrain not from speaking at the proper time, and hide not away your wisdom; 24  For it is through speech that wisdom becomes known, and knowledge through the tongue's rejoinder.
