Sirach 26:7-9
Wycliffe Bible
7 As a yoke of oxes which is moved, so and a wicked woman; he that holdeth her, is as he that taketh (hold of) a scorpion. [As a yoke of oxen that is moved, so a shrewd (or a depraved) woman; who holdeth her, as (if) he caught a scorpion.]
8 A drunken woman is great ire, and despising; and her filth(hood) shall not be covered. [A drunken woman great wrath and strife; the filthhood of her shall not be covered.]
9 The fornication of a woman is in the raising of (her) eyes; and [she] shall be known in (or by) the eyelids of her.
