Sirach 25:24

24 Sin began with a woman, and because of her all of us die.

Sirach 25:24 In-Context

22 There will be anger, shamelessness, and utter disgrace when a wife provides for her husband.
23 A wicked wife causes a humiliated heart, a gloomy face, and a wounded heart. Drooping hands and weakened knees come from a woman who doesn't make her husband happy.
24 Sin began with a woman, and because of her all of us die.
25 Don't allow an outlet for water, and don't give a wicked wife freedom to speak.
26 If she doesn't do as you say, divorce her.
