Sirach 40:21-23

Common English Bible

²¹ A flute and a harp make sweet melodies,
    but better than both is a pleasant voice.
²² The eye will desire grace and beauty,
    but better than both
    are the first shoots of a crop.
²³ A friend and a companion encounter
each other at an opportune moment,
    but better than both
    is a woman with her husband.
