Ben Sira 36:23

23 If there be kindness, meekness, and comfort in her tongue, then is not her husband like other men.

Ben Sira 36:23 In-Context

21 A woman will receive every man, yet is one daughter better than another.
22 The beauty of a woman cheereth the countenance, and a man loveth nothing better.
23 If there be kindness, meekness, and comfort in her tongue, then is not her husband like other men.
24 He that getteth a wife beginneth a possession, a helper like unto himself, and a pillar of rest.
25 Where no hedge is, there the possession is despoiled; and he that hath no wife will wander up and down mourning.
