Wisdom of Ben Sira 26:22-24
New Catholic Bible
22 A prostitute is looked upon as no better than spittle,
but a married woman is a deadly snare for those who embrace her.
23 A godless woman is a suitable partner for a lawless husband,
but a pious woman is granted to the man who fears the Lord.
24 A brazen woman constantly acts in a disgraceful manner,
but a virtuous daughter is modest even in the presence of her husband.
