True and False Shame (By Ben Sira)

Hidden wisdom and concealed treasure, of what value is either? 
Better is the person who hides his folly than the one who hides his wisdom. 
My children, listen to instruction about shame; a judge of disgrace according to my rules. 
Not every kind of shame is shameful, nor is every kind of disgrace to be recognized. 
Before father and mother be ashamed of immorality, before prince and ruler, of falsehood; Before master and mistress, of deceit; before the public assembly, of crime; Before associate and friend, of disloyalty, and in the place where you settle, of theft. 
Be ashamed of breaking an oath or a covenant, and of stretching your elbow at dinner; Of refusing to give when asked, of rebuffing your own relatives; Of defrauding another of his appointed share, of failing to return a greeting; Of gazing at a man’s wife, of entertaining thoughts about another woman; Of trifling with a servant girl you have, of violating her bed; Of using harsh words with friends, of following up your gifts with insults. 
Amen.
