Sirach 25:18-20
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
18 Her husband takes his meals among the neighbors,
and he cannot help sighing[a] bitterly.
19 Any iniquity is insignificant compared to a wife’s iniquity;
may a sinner’s lot befall her!
20 A sandy ascent for the feet of the aged—
such is a garrulous wife for a quiet husband.
