Ecclesiasticus 42:12

Ecclesiasticus 42:12 Context

¹⁰In her virginitie lest she should be defiled, and gotten with childe in her fathers house; and hauing an husband, lest she should misbehaue herselfe: and when shee is married, lest shee should be barren. ¹¹Keepe a sure watch ouer a shamelesse daughter, lest shee make thee a laughing stocke to thine enemies, and a by-word in the citie, and a reproch among the people, and make thee ashamed before the multitude. ¹²Behold not euery bodies beauty, and sit not in the midst of women. ¹³For from garments commeth a moth, and from women wickednesse. ¹⁴Better is the churlishnesse of a man, then a courteous woman, a woman I say, which bringeth shame and reproch.
