Proverbs19:13
13 A foolish son is the calamity of his father, and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping .
Are like rain continually dropping upon an house which by degrees marreth the House and Houshold stuff, and driveth the inhabitants out of it. He compareth her to a continual dropping, because of that inseparable Union and necessary cohabitation of Husband and Wife together, notwithstanding such contentions.
