"Turn away thy face from a woman dressed up, and gaze not about upon another’s beauty."
— Sirach 9:8

W kontekście

6Give not thy soul to harlots in any point: lest thou destroy thyself and thy inheritance.

7Look not round about thee in the of the city, nor wander up and down in the streets thereof.

8Turn away thy face from a woman dressed up, and gaze not about upon another’s beauty.

9For many have perished by the beauty of a woman, and hereby lust is enkindled as a fire.

10Every woman that is a harlot, shall be trodden upon as dung in the way.
