And a contentious woman are alike;

²¹ He who pampers his servant from childhood
Will have him as a son in the end.

¹⁹ Better to dwell ^[a]in the wilderness,
Than with a contentious and angry woman.

⁹ Better to dwell in a corner of a housetop,
Than in a house shared with ^(A)a contentious woman.

^13 (A)A foolish son is the ruin of his father,
^(B)And the contentions of a wife are a continual ^[a]dripping.
