Ecclesiasticus 25:21 Context
19All wickednesse is but little to the wickednesse of a woman: let the portion of a sinner fall vpon her. 20As the climbing vp a sandie way is to the feete of the aged, so is a wife full of words to a quiet man. 21Stumble not at the beautie of a woman, and desire her not for pleasure. 22A woman, if shee maintaine her husband, is full of anger, impudencie, and much reproch. 23A wicked woman abateth the courage, maketh a heauie countenance, and a wounded heart: a woman that will not comfort her husband in distresse maketh weake hands, and feeble knees.
