Vulg. Sir 22:30 Latin
Vulgate — Sirach
Ante ignem camini vapor et fumus ignis inaltatur: sic et ante sanguinem maledicta, et contumeliæ, et minæ.
As the vapour of a chimney, and the smoke of the fire goeth up before the fire: so also injurious words, and reproaches, and threats, before blood.
English: Douay-Rheims (Challoner)
