Sirach 25:15-17
Good News Translation
15 No poison is deadlier than the poison of a snake, and no anger is deadlier than the anger of a woman.[a]
16 I would rather live in the same house with a lion or a dragon than with a bad wife. 17 When a wife is in a bad mood, her expression changes until she looks like an angry bear.
