Catholic Bible · DRA · Verse 7 of 38

"From the depth of the belly of hell, and from an unclean tongue, and from lying words, from an unjust king, and from a slanderous tongue:"
Sirach 51:7

In context

5Out of the hands of them that sought my life, and from the gates of afflictions, which compassed me about:

6From the oppression of the flame which surrounded me, and in the midst of the fire I was not burnt.

7From the depth of the belly of hell, and from an unclean tongue, and from lying words, from an unjust king, and from a slanderous tongue:

8My soul shall praise the Lord even to death.

9And my life was drawing near to hell beneath.
