1There are three things my soul delights in, and which are delightful to God and to all people: concordbetween brothers, friendship between neighbours, and a wife and husband who live happily together.2There are three sorts of people my soul hates, and whose existence I consider an outrage: the poorswol en with pride, the rich who is a liar and an adulterous old man who has no sense.3If you have gathered nothing in your youth, how can you discover anything in your old age?4How fine a thing: sound judgement with grey hairs, and for greybeards to know how to advise!5How fine a thing: wisdom in the aged, and considered advice coming from people of distinction!6The crown of the aged is ripe experience, their glory, the fear of the Lord.7There are nine things I can think of which strike me as happy, and a tenth which is now on my tongue:the man who can be proud of his children, he who lives to see the downfal of his enemies;8happy is he who keeps house with a sensible wife; he who does not toil with ox and donkey; he whohas never sinned with his tongue; he who does not serve a man less worthy than himself;9happy is he who has acquired good sense and can find attentive ears for what he has to say;10how great is he who has acquired wisdom; but unsurpassed is one who fears the Lord.11The fear of the Lord surpasses everything; what can compare with someone who has mastered that?1213Any wound rather than a wound of the heart! Any spite rather than the spite of woman!14Any evil rather than an evil caused by an enemy! Any vengeance rather than the vengeance of a foe!15There is no poison worse than the poison of a snake, there is no fury worse than the fury of an enemy.16I would sooner keep house with a lion or a dragon than keep house with a spiteful wife.17A woman's spite changes her appearance and makes her face as grim as a bear's.18When her husband goes out to dinner with his neighbours, he cannot help heaving bitter sighs.19No spite can approach the spite of a woman, may a sinner's lot be hers!20Like the climbing of a sandhill for elderly feet, such is a garrulous wife for a quiet husband.21Do not be taken in by a woman's beauty, never lose your head over a woman.22Bad temper, insolence and shame hold sway where the wife supports the husband.23Low spirits, gloomy face, stricken heart: such is a spiteful wife. Slack hands and sagging knees: suchis the wife who does not make her husband happy.24Sin began with a woman, and thanks to her we must al die.25Do not let water find a leak, nor a spiteful woman give free rein to her tongue.26If she wil not do as you tel her, get rid of her.
