Sirach 26:6-8
Common English Bible
6 Women who are rivals
bring heartache and grief,
and a tongue-lashing shares it
with everyone.
7 A wicked wife is like a chafing ox yoke;
the one who holds her
is like one who grasps a scorpion.
8 A drunken wife is the same as rage;
she won’t hide her disgraceful conduct.
