Ecclesiastes 7:21
World English Bible (WEB)
Also don’t take heed to all words that are spoken, lest you hear your servant curse you;
In context
19 Wisdom is a strength to the wise man more than ten rulers who are in a city.
20 Surely there is not a righteous man on earth who does good and doesn’t sin.
21 Also don’t take heed to all words that are spoken, lest you hear your servant curse you;
22 for often your own heart knows that you yourself have likewise cursed others.
23 All this I have proved in wisdom. I said, “I will be wise;” but it was far from me.
