Sirach 42:13-15
Common English Bible
13 Moths come out of clothes,
and a woman’s wickedness
comes from a woman.
14 A man’s wickedness
is better than a woman who does good
and a disgraced woman
who brings shame.
God’s created order
15 Now I’ll call to mind the works
of the Lord,
and I’ll tell about what I’ve seen.
The Lord’s works came into being
by his words.[a]
