Wisdom of Solomon (Apocrypha),
chapter 1
1: Love righteousness, ye that be judges of the earth: think of the Lord
with a good (heart,) and in simplicity of heart seek him.
2: For he will be found of them that tempt him not; and sheweth himself unto such as do not distrust him.
3: For forward thoughts separate from God: and his power, when it is tried, reproveth the unwise.
4: For into a malicious soul wisdom shall not enter; nor dwell in the body that is subject unto sin.
5: For the holy spirit of discipline will flee deceit, and remove from thoughts that are without understanding, and will not abide when unrighteousness cometh in.
6: For wisdom is a loving spirit; and will not acquit a blasphemer of his words: for God is witness of his reins, and a true beholder of his heart, and a hearer of his tongue.
7: For the Spirit of the Lord filleth the world: and that which containeth all things hath knowledge of the voice.
8: Therefore he that speaketh unrighteous things cannot be hid: neither shall vengeance, when it punisheth, pass by him.
9: For inquisition shall be made into the counsels of the ungodly: and the sound of his words shall come unto the Lord for the manifestation of his wicked deeds.
10: For the ear of jealousy heareth all things: and the noise of murmurings is not hid.
11: Therefore beware of murmuring, which is unprofitable; and refrain your tongue from backbiting: for there is no word so secret, that shall go for nought: and the mouth that belieth slayeth the soul.
2: For he will be found of them that tempt him not; and sheweth himself unto such as do not distrust him.
