Sirach 42:12-14

Common English Bible

¹² Don’t consider the beauty
of any person,^[a]
    and don’t spend time among women.
¹³     Moths come out of clothes,
    and a woman’s wickedness
    comes from a woman.
¹⁴ A man’s wickedness
is better than a woman who does good
    and a disgraced woman
    who brings shame.
