Sirach 42: 9-10
Although he will not let his daughter know it,
a father will lie awake at night worrying about her.
If she is young,
he worries that she might not get married.
If she is already married,
he worries about her happiness.
If she is a virgin,
he worries that she might be seduced and become pregnant while living in his house.
If she is married,
he worries that she might be unfaithful, or she might not be able to have children.
