Sirach 28:16-18
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
16 Whoever pays heed to slander[a] will not find rest,
nor will he settle down in peace.
17 The blow of a whip raises a welt,
but a blow of the tongue crushes the bones.
18 Many have fallen by the edge of the sword,
but not so many as have fallen because of the tongue.
