Ben Sira 26:17

17 Like the shining lamp on the holy lampstand, so is a beautiful face on a stately figure.

Ben Sira 26:17 In-Context

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.

18 Like golden pillars on silver bases, so are shapely legs and steadfast feet.

19 [My child, keep sound the bloom of your youth,] [and do not give your strength to strangers.]
