Ecclesiasticus 21:25 The lips of talkers will bee telling such things as pertaine not vnto them: but the words of such as haue vnderstanding, are weighed in the ballance.
Rehearse not vnto another that which is told vnto thee, and thou shalt fare neuer the worse.
Whether it be to friend or foe, talk not of other mens liues, and if thou canst without offence reueale them not.
For he heard and obserued thee, and when time commeth he will hate thee.
If thou hast heard a word, let it die with thee, and be bold it will not burst thee.
Sirach 19:7-10
Who so discouereth secrets, looseth his credit: and shall neuer find friend to his minde.
Loue thy friend, and be faithfull vnto him: but if thou bewrayest his secrets, follow no more after him.
For as a man hath destroyed his enemie: so hast thou lost the loue of thy neighbour.
Sirach 27: 16-18
