but to those who are selfishly ambitious and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, wrath and indignation.
A foolish son is destruction to his father,
And the contentions of a wife are a constant dripping.
It is better to live in a corner of a roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
It is better to live in a corner of the roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,
So is a contentious man to kindle strife.
A constant dripping on a day of steady rain And a contentious woman are alike; He who would restrain her restrains the wind, And grasps oil with his right hand.
A foolish son is destruction to his father,
And the contentions of a wife are a constant dripping.
It is better to live in a corner of a roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
It is better to live in a corner of the roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
A constant dripping on a day of steady rain
And a contentious woman are alike;
A foolish son is destruction to his father,
And the contentions of a wife are a constant dripping.
It is better to live in a corner of a roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
It is better to live in a corner of the roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
A constant dripping on a day of steady rain
And a contentious woman are alike;
It is better to live in a desert land
Than with a contentious and vexing woman.
As a ring of gold in a swine’s snout
So is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.
A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city,
And contentions are like the bars of a citadel.
Better is a dish of vegetables where love is
Than a fattened ox served with hatred.
A foolish son is destruction to his father,
And the contentions of a wife are a constant dripping.
It is better to live in a corner of a roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
It is better to live in a corner of the roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
A constant dripping on a day of steady rain And a contentious woman are alike; He who would restrain her restrains the wind, And grasps oil with his right hand.
An excellent wife is the crown of her husband,
But she who shames him is like rottenness in his bones.
The wise woman builds her house,
But the foolish tears it down with her own hands.
Under three things the earth quakes,
And under four, it cannot bear up:
Under an unloved woman when she gets a husband,
And a maidservant when she supplants her mistress.
A foolish son is destruction to his father,
And the contentions of a wife are a constant dripping.
It is better to live in a corner of a roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
It is better to live in a corner of the roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
A constant dripping on a day of steady rain
And a contentious woman are alike;
It is better to live in a corner of a roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
It is better to live in a corner of the roof
Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.
