"For a wicked soul shall destroy him that hath it, and maketh him to be a joy to his enemies, and shall lead him into the lot of the wicked."
Sirach 6:4

En contexte

2Extol not thyself in the thoughts of thy soul like a bull: lest thy strength be quashed by folly,

3And it eat up thy leaves, and destroy thy fruit: and thou be left as a dry tree in the wilderness.

4For a wicked soul shall destroy him that hath it, and maketh him to be a joy to his enemies, and shall lead him into the lot of the wicked.

5A sweet word multiplieth friends, and appeaseth enemies, and a gracious tongue in a good man aboundeth.

6Be in peace with many, but let one of a thousand be thy counsellor.
