American Standard Version of 1901
Versliste
It is better to dwell in a desert land,Than with {Or, a contentious woman and vexation}a contentious and fretful woman.
A foolish son is the calamity of his father;And the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.
Let us make, I pray thee, a little chamber {Or, with walls}on the wall; and let us set for him there a bed, and a table, and a seat, and a candlestick: and it shall be, when he cometh to us, that he shall turn in thither.
