Sirach 42:10-12
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
10 while a virgin, lest she be defiled
or become pregnant in her father’s house;
or having a husband, lest she prove unfaithful,
or, though married, lest she be barren.
11 Keep strict watch over a headstrong daughter,
lest she make you a laughingstock to your enemies,
a byword in the city and notorious[a] among the people,
and put you to shame before the great multitude.
12 Do not look upon any one for beauty,
and do not sit in the midst of women;
