20 LIBER IESU FILII SIRACH Syrach - Wycliffe Bible(14c) Ecclesiasticus - Douay Rheims(17c) Reference
18qui enim edunt panem illius, falsæ linguæ sunt. Quoties et quanti irridebunt eum ! Inappropriate talk. Sir.20.18-26
19neque enim quod habendum erat directo sensu distribuit; similiter et quod non erat habendum.  
20Lapsus falsæ linguæ quasi qui in pavimento cadens: sic casus malorum festinanter veniet.  
21Homo acharis quasi fabula vana, in ore indisciplinatorum assidua erit.  
22Ex ore fatui reprobabitur parabola: non enim dicit illam in tempore suo.  
23Est qui vetatur peccare præ inopia, et in requie sua stimulabitur.  
24Est qui perdet animam suam præ confusione, et ab imprudenti persona perdet eam: personæ autem acceptione perdet se.  
25Est qui præ confusione promittit amico, et lucratus est eum inimicum gratis.  
26Opprobrium nequam in homine mendacium: et in ore indisciplinatorum assidue erit.  

Notes: For the Bible in Latin, I have used the Vulgate text at the Clementine Vulgate Project website.
The only English translations from the Vulgate that are readily available are John Wycliffe's 14th century English Bible, and the the Douay Rheims/Challoner versions. I have used the Wycliffe Bible text from the Wesley Centre website, where you can view this Bible in a number of formats. I have used the Douay Rheims Text at the Unbound Bible website. You can view the Douay Rheims Bible in a more readable format at DRBO.ORG website.
The katapi New Study Bible reference section: displays links to parallel passages. Passage headings are generally as printed in the Bible Society's "Good News Bible", 1976. To view the Greek Text on this page, you will need a Unicode font capable of displaying extended Greek characters. To find out about Unicode fonts, go to Alan Wood's Unicode Resources.
