Sirach 42:13-15
Wycliffe Bible
13 For why a moth cometh forth of (or from) clothes, and (the) wickedness of a man cometh forth of (or from) a woman. [Forsooth of clothes cometh the moth, and of a woman the wickedness of a man.]
14 For why the wickedness of a man is better, that is, less evil, than a woman doing well, and a woman shaming into shame (or reproach). [Better forsooth is the wickedness of a man, then a woman doing benefit, and a woman confounded into reproof.][a]
15 Therefore be thou mindful of the works of the Lord; and I shall tell (out) the works of the Lord, which I saw, in the words of the Lord. [Mindful be I shall therefore of the works of the Lord; and that (that) I saw, I shall show out, in the words of the Lord, his works.]
