Sirach 25:21-23

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²¹ Do not be ensnared by a woman’s beauty,
    and do not desire a woman for her possessions.^[a]
22 There is wrath and impudence and great disgrace
    when a wife supports her husband.
²³ A dejected mind, a gloomy face,
    and a wounded heart are caused by an evil wife.
Drooping hands and weak knees
    are caused by the wife who does not make her husband happy.
