Ecclesiasticus 9:1-3 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

1. BE not jealous over the wife of thy bosom, lest she shew in thy regard the malice of a wicked lesson.

2. Give not the power of thy soul to a woman, lest she enter upon thy strength, and thou be confounded.

3. Look not upon a woman that hath a mind for many: lest thou fall into her snares.
