Sirach 8:15-17
Wycliffe Bible
15 Go thou not in the way with an hardy man, lest peradventure he aggregate (or weigh down) his evils in (or on) thee; for he goeth after his (own) will (or his own desire), and thou shalt perish together with (him through) his folly.
16 Make thou not chiding [or jangling] with a wrathful man, and go thou not into (a) desert with an hardy man; for why blood, that is, shedding out of innocent blood, is as nought before him, and where none help is, [or and where is not help], (or where there is no help), he shall hurtle thee down.
17 Have thou not counsel with fools; for they may not love (or be not able to love), no but those things that please them.
