Sirach 26:15-17
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
15 A modest wife adds charm to charm,
and no scales can weigh the value of her self-control.
16 Like the sun rising in the heights of the Lord,
so is the beauty of a good wife in her well-ordered home.(A)
17 Like the shining lamp on the holy lampstand,
so is a beautiful face on a stately figure.(B)
