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. 15I will now remember the works of the Lord, and declare the things that I haue seene: in the words of the Lord are his workes. 16The Sunne that giueth light, looketh vpon all things: and the worke thereof is full of the glory of the Lord.
