Sirach 47:18-20
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
18 In the name of the Lord God,
who is called the God of Israel,
you gathered gold like tin
and amassed silver like lead.
19 But you brought in women to lie at your side,
and through your body you were brought into subjection.
20 You stained your honour
and defiled your family line,
so that you brought wrath upon your children,
and they were grieved[a] at your folly,
