13 Any wound, but not a wound of the heart!Any wickedness, but not the wickedness of a woman!
14 Any suffering, but not suffering from one’s foes!Any vengeance, but not the vengeance of one’s enemies!
15 There is no poison worse than that of a serpent,no venom greater than that of a woman.
16 I would rather live with a dragon or a lionthan live with a wicked woman.
17 A woman’s wicked disposition changes her appearance,and makes her face as dark as a bear.
18 When her husband sits among his neighbors,a bitter sigh escapes him unawares.
19 There is hardly an evil like that in a woman;may she fall to the lot of the sinner!
