Ecclesiasticus 25:20 Context
17The wickedness of a woman changeth her face, and darkeneth her countenance like sackcloth. 18Her husband shall sit among his neighbours; and when he heareth it shall sigh bitterly. 19All wickedness is but little to the wickedness of a woman: let the portion of a sinner fall upon her. 20As the climbing up a sandy way is to the feet of the aged, so is a wife full of words to a quiet man. 21Stumble not at the beauty of a woman, and desire her not for pleasure. 22A woman, if she maintain her husband, is full of anger, impudence, and much reproach. 23A wicked woman abateth the courage, maketh an heavy countenance and a wounded heart: a woman that will not comfort her husband in distress maketh weak hands and feeble knees.
