Ben Sira 26:3

Listen to Ben Sira 26:3
3 A good wife is a great blessing; she will be granted among the blessings of the man who fears the Lord.

Ben Sira 26:3 In-Context

1 Happy is the husband of a good wife; the number of his days will be doubled.
2 A loyal wife rejoices her husband, and he will complete his years in peace.
3 A good wife is a great blessing; she will be granted among the blessings of the man who fears the Lord.
4 Whether rich or poor, his heart is glad, and at all times his face is cheerful.
5 Of three things my heart is afraid, and of a fourth I am frightened: The slander of a city, the gathering of a mob, and false accusation -- all these are worse than death.
