Ben Sira 23:22

Listen to Ben Sira 23:22
22 The same is true of a woman who is unfaithful to her husband and presents him with a child by another man.

Ben Sira 23:22 In-Context

20 He knew everything before he created the world, as well as after.
21 That sinful man will be caught when he least expects it, and punished publicly
22 The same is true of a woman who is unfaithful to her husband and presents him with a child by another man.
23 In the first place, she has broken the Law of the Most High. In the second place, she has wronged her husband. And in the third place, she has made a whore of herself by committing adultery and bearing the child of a man not her husband.
24 The children will suffer for her sin. They will not be able to find a place in society or establish families. She herself will be brought before the assembly
