Wisdom of Ben Sira 42:8-10

New Catholic Bible

⁸ of correcting an ignorant or a foolish man,
    or a dotard who bickers with the young;
in this way, you will exhibit your sound training
    and win universal approval.

⁹ A daughter is a treasure that makes her father anxious,
    and in his worry about her he loses sleep:
when she is young, for fear she may never marry,
    and when she is married, for fear her husband may hate her;
¹⁰ when she is a virgin, for fear she may be seduced
    and become pregnant in her father’s house;
when she has a husband, for fear she may prove unfaithful,
    and after marriage, for fear she may prove to be barren.
