Sirach 26:16LXX
Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 16 of 28
"The grace of a diligent woman shall delight her husband, and shall fat his bones."
In context
14Take heed of the impudence of her eyes, and wonder not if she slight thee.
15She will open her mouth as a thirsty traveller to the fountain, and will drink of every water near her, and will sit down by every hedge, and open her quiver against every arrow, until she fail.
16The grace of a diligent woman shall delight her husband, and shall fat his bones.
17Her discipline is the gift of God.
18Such is a wise and silent woman, and there is nothing so much worth as a well instructed soul.
