Sirach 22:2-4
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised
2 The idler is like the filth of dunghills;
anyone that picks it up will shake it off his hand.
Degenerate Children
3 It is a disgrace to be the father of an undisciplined son,
and the birth of a daughter is a loss.
4 A sensible daughter obtains a husband of her own,
but one who acts shamefully is a grief to her father.
