Proverbs 27:14-16

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁴ He that blesseth his neighbour with a loud voice, rising in the night, shall be like to him that curseth.

¹⁵ Roofs dropping through in a cold day, and a contentious woman are alike.

¹⁶ He that retaineth her, is as he that would hold the wind, and shall call in the oil of his right hand.
