Sirach 28:16-20

{28:16} A third tongue has stirred up many, and has scattered them from nation to nation.
{28:17} It has destroyed the walled cities of the wealthy, and has undermined the houses of the great.
{28:18} It has cut down the virtues of the peoples, and has broken strong nations.
{28:19} A third tongue has cast down virtuous women, and has deprived them of their labors.
{28:20} Whoever favors it will not have rest, nor will he have a friend in whom he may find peace.
