Ecclesiasticus 27:17 Context
15The strife of the proud is blood-shedding, and their reuilings are grieuous to the eare. 16Who so discouereth secrets, looseth his credit: and shall neuer find friend to his minde. 17Loue thy friend, and be faithfull vnto him: but if thou bewrayest his secrets, follow no more after him. 18For as a man hath destroyed his enemie: so hast thou lost the loue of thy neighbour. 19As one that letteth a bird goe out of his hand, so hast thou let thy neighbour goe; and shalt not get him againe.
