In context
19All wickedness is but little to the wickedness of a woman; Let the portion of a sinner fall upon her.
20As the climbing up a sandy way is to the feet of the aged, So is a wife full of words to a quiet man.
— Sirach 25:21 —
22A woman, if she maintain her husband, Is full of anger, impudence, and much reproach.
23A wicked woman abateth the courage, maketh a heavy countenance and a wounded heart: A woman that will not comfort her husband in distress maketh weak hands and feeble knees.
