11
Keep a close watch over your daughter if she is determined to have her own way. If you don't, she may make a fool of you in front of your enemies. You will be a constant joke to everyone in town, a public disgrace. Make sure that her room has no windows or any place where she can look out to the entrance of the house.
12
Don't let her show off her beauty in front of men, or spend her time talking with the women.
13
Women hurt other women just as moths damage clothing.
14
A man's wickedness is better than a woman's goodness; women bring shame and disgrace.
15
Now I will remind you of the works of the Lord and describe the things I have seen. The words of the Lord brought his works into being, and the whole creation obeys his commands.
