Ecclesiasticus 26:9 Context
7An euil wife is a yoke shaken to and fro: he that hath hold of her, is as though he held a scorpion. 8A drunken woman and a gadder abroad, causeth great anger, and shee will not couer her owne shame. 9The whordome of a woman may be knowen in her haughtie lookes, and eye lids. 10If thy daughter be shamelesse, keepe her in straitly: lest she abuse her selfe through ouermuch libertie. 11Watch ouer an impudent eye: and marueile not, if shee trespasse against thee.
