Sirach 25:14-16
Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
14 Any attack, but not an attack from those who hate!
And any vengeance, but not the vengeance of enemies!
15 There is no venom[a] worse than a snake’s venom,[b]
and no wrath worse than an enemy’s wrath.
The Evil of a Wicked Woman
16 I would rather dwell with a lion and a dragon
than dwell with an evil wife.
