10 while she’s a virgin,that she not be seducedand become pregnantwhile still living at home;when she’s married,that she not go straying;or having married,that she not be infertile.
11 Keep a strict watch overan unruly daughterso that she doesn’t make youan object of ridicule to your enemies,a topic of talk in the cityand the assembly of the people,and she shame you before the crowd.
12 Don’t consider the beautyof any person,and don’t spend time among women.
13 Moths come out of clothes,and a woman’s wickednesscomes from a woman.
14 A man’s wickednessis better than a woman who does goodand a disgraced womanwho brings shame.
15 Now I’ll call to mind the worksof the Lord,and I’ll tell about what I’ve seen.The Lord’s works came into beingby his words.
16 The shining sun looked downon everything,and the Lord’s work is radiantwith his glory.
