Proverbs 27:15

American Standard Version 2015

A continual dropping in a very rainy day\par\tab And a contentious woman are alike:

See the chapter Copy

A foolish son is the calamity of his father;\par\tab And the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.

It is better to dwell in a desert land,\par\tab Than with a contentious and fretful woman.

It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop,\par\tab Than with a contentious woman in a wide house.

It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop,\par\tab Than with a contentious woman in a wide house.

The waters wear the stones;\par\tab The overflowings thereof wash away the dust of the earth:\par\tab So thou destroyest the hope of man.

He that would restrain her restraineth the wind;\par\tab And his right hand encountereth oil.
