Sirach 25:14-16
Common English Bible
14 Any attack,
but not an attack by those who hate;
and any vengeance,
but not the vengeance of enemies.
15 No poison is worse than a snake’s poison,[a]
and no anger is worse
than an enemy’s anger.
16 I would rather live with a lion or a serpent
than live with a wicked woman.
