Sirach 26:25

Listen to Sirach 26:25
25 An unruly wife will be thought of as a dog, but the wife who feels shame will fear the Lord.

Sirach 26:25 In-Context

23 An ungodly woman will be bestowed on a lawless man as his portion, but a godly woman is granted to the man who fears the Lord.
24 A shameless woman will always be in disgrace, but a dignified daughter will show modesty even with her husband.
25 An unruly wife will be thought of as a dog, but the wife who feels shame will fear the Lord.
26 A wife who honors her own husband will appear wise to everyone, but the wife who dishonors her husband with arrogance will be known to all as ungodly. The husband of a good wife is happy, for the number of his years will double.
27 A loudmouthed and talkative wife is like a battle trumpet sounding an attack. The spirit of the man who lives under such conditions lives perpetually in the chaos of the battlefield.
