Than in a house shared with a contentious woman.

A hot-tempered man stirs up strife,
But the slow to anger calms a dispute.
He who loves transgression loves strife;
He who raises his door seeks destruction.
Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,
So is a contentious man to kindle strife.
Why do You make me see iniquity,
And cause me to look on wickedness?
Yes, destruction and violence are before me;
Strife exists and contention arises.
It is better to live in a desert land
Than with a contentious and vexing woman.
The wicked is a ransom for the righteous,
And the treacherous is in the place of the upright.
There is precious treasure and oil in the dwelling of the wise,
But a foolish man swallows it up.
Through insolence comes nothing but strife,
But wisdom is with those who receive counsel.
