Sirach 26:6-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

6 But it is heartache and sorrow when a wife has a rival,
    and a tongue-lashing makes it known to all.(A)
7 A bad wife is a chafing yoke;
    taking hold of her is like grasping a scorpion.
8 A drunken wife arouses great anger;
    she cannot hide her shame.
