Ben Sira 26:15

Listen to Ben Sira 26:15
15 A modest wife adds charm to charm, and no scales can weigh the value of her chastity.

Ben Sira 26:15 In-Context

13 A wife's charm delights her husband, and her skill puts flesh on his bones.
14 A silent wife is a gift from the Lord, and nothing is so precious as her self-discipline.
15 A modest wife adds charm to charm, and no scales can weigh the value of her chastity.
16 Like the sun rising in the heights of the Lord, so is the beauty of a good wife in her well-ordered home.
17 Like the shining lamp on the holy lampstand, so is a beautiful face on a stately figure.
