Wisdom of Ben Sira 25:21-23
New Catholic Bible
21 Do not be tempted by a woman’s beauty,
nor desire her for her possessions.
22 Wrath, insolence, and disgrace hold sway
when a wife supports the husband.
23 Dejected spirits, downcast face, and a broken heart:
these are the results brought on by an evil wife.
