Sirach 42:14

14 A man's wickedness is better than a woman who does good and a disgraced woman who brings shame.

Sirach 42:14 In-Context

12 Don't consider the beauty of any person, 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.

15 Now I'll call to mind the works of the Lord, and I'll tell about what I've seen. The Lord's works came into being by his words.

16 The shining sun looked down on everything, and the Lord's work is radiant with his glory.
