Ben Sira 26:24 In-Context

22 [A prostitute is regarded as spittle,] [and a married woman as a tower of death to her lovers.]
23 [A godless wife is given as a portion to a lawless man,] [but a pious wife is given to the man who fears the Lord.]
24 [A shameless woman constantly acts disgracefully,] [but a modest daughter will even be embarrassed before her husband.]
25 [A headstrong wife is regarded as a dog,] [but one who has a sense of shame will fear the Lord.]
