Ben Sira 25:21

21 Stumble not at the beauty of a woman, and desire her not for pleasure.

Ben Sira 25:21 In-Context

19 All wickedness is but little to the wickedness of a woman; let the portion of a sinner fall upon her.
20 As the climbing up a sandy way is to the feet of the aged, so is a wife full of words to a quiet man.
21 Stumble not at the beauty of a woman, and desire her not for pleasure.
22 A woman, if she maintain her husband, is full of anger, impudence, and much reproach.
23 A wicked woman abateth the courage, maketh a heavy countenance and a wounded heart. A woman that will not comfort her husband in distress maketh weak hands and feeble knees.
