Proverbs 21:9

It is better to dwell on the corner of the roof than to share the house with a contentious (combative) woman.

A foolish son is a disgrace to his father. A contentious wife is like drips from a leaky roof.

It is better to dwell alone in the wilderness than with an angry contentious (quarreling and angry) woman.

It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than to share the house with a contentious woman.

A virtuous wife is a crown to her husband. She who acts shameful is rottenness in his bones.

Better is a bowel of soup where there is love, than a steak with someone you hate.

Better is dry bread in peace than a house full of feasting with discord.

Continual dripping on a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
