Ben Sira 25:13

13 Any wound, but not a wound of the heart! Any wickedness, but not the wickedness of a woman!

Ben Sira 25:13 In-Context

11 Fear of the Lord surpasses everything; to whom can we compare the one who has it?
13 Any wound, but not a wound of the heart! Any wickedness, but not the wickedness of a woman!
14 Any suffering, but not suffering from those who hate! And any vengeance, but not the vengeance of enemies!
15 There is no venom worse than a snake's venom, and no anger worse than a woman's wrath.
