Ben Sira 42:13

Listen to Ben Sira 42:13
13 For from garments cometh a moth, end from a woman the iniquity of a man.

Ben Sira 42:13 In-Context

11 Keep a sure watch over a shameless daughter: lest at any time she make thee become a laughingstock to thy enemies, and a byword in the city, and a reproach among the people, and she make thee ashamed before all the multitude.
12 Behold not everybody's beauty: and tarry not among women.
13 For from garments cometh a moth, end from a woman the iniquity of a man.
14 For better is the iniquity of a man, than a woman doing a good turn, and a woman bringing shame and reproach.
15 I will now remember the works of the Lord, and I will declare the things I have seen. By the words of the Lord are his works.
