Proverbs 9:13

Douay-Rheims version of The Bible - 1752 version

A foolish woman and clamorous, and full of allurements, and knowing nothing at all,

See the chapter Copy

Not bearing to be quiet, not able to abide still at home,

They walk not by the path of life, her steps are wandering, and unaccountable.

He is proud, knowing nothing, but sick about questions and strifes of words; from which arise envies, contentions, blasphemies, evil suspicions,

It is better to dwell in a wilderness, than with a quarrelsome and passionate woman.

It is better to sit in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling women, and in a common house.

Wherein shall I cleanse thy heart, saith the Lord God, seeing thou dost all these the works of a shameless prostitute?
