16 I will rather dwell with a lion and a dragon, Than keep house with a wicked woman.
17 The wickedness of a woman changes her look, And darkens her countenance as a bear does.
18 Her husband shall sit at meat among his neighbors, And when he hears it he sighs bitterly.
19 All malice is but little to the malice of a woman: Let the portion of a sinner fall on her.
20 As the going up a sandy way is to the feet of the aged, So is a wife full of words to a quiet man.
21 Throw not yourself upon the beauty of a woman; And desire not a woman for her beauty.
22 There is anger, and impudence, and great reproach, If a woman maintain her husband.
