Ecclesiastes 7:20-22
New Catholic Bible
20 There is no one on earth who is so righteous
that he does nothing but good and never sins.[a]
21 If you do not pay attention to all that people say,
you will never hear your servant speaking ill of you.
22 For you know in your heart
that you have often spoken ill of others.
