| 3 | 瞻卬: |
哲夫成城、哲婦傾城。 懿厥哲婦、為梟為鴟。 婦有長舌、維厲之階。 亂匪降自天、生自婦人。 匪教匪誨、時維婦寺。 |
| Zhan Yang: |
A wise man builds up the wall [of a city], But a wise woman overthrows it. Admirable may be the wise woman, But she is [no better than] an owl. A woman with a long tongue, Is [like] a stepping-stone to disorder. [Disorder] does not come down from heaven; - It is produced by the woman. Those from whom come no lessons, no instruction, Are women and eunuchs. |
