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.
18 Her husband has to go and eat with the neighbours, where he can't hold back his bitter sighs.
19 Compared with the troubles caused by a woman, any other trouble looks small. May such women suffer the fate of sinners!
20 A quiet man living with a nagging wife is like an old man climbing up a sandy hill.
21 Never lose your head over a woman's beauty, and don't try to win a woman because she is wealthy.
22 When a man is supported by his wife, there is sure to be anger, arrogance, and humiliation.
