1 Esdras 4:20-22

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

²⁰ A man leaves his own father, who brought him up, and his own country, and clings to his wife. ²¹ With his wife he ends his days, with no thought of his father or his mother or his country. ²² Therefore you must realize that women rule over you!

‘Do you not labour and toil, and bring everything and give it to women?
