A continual dropping in a very rainy day And a contentious woman are alike:

大雨之日连连滴漏，和争吵的妇人一样；

下雨天连连滴漏，好争吵的妇人就像这样；

下雨天连连滴漏，好争吵的妇人就像这样；

喋喋不休的妇人，就像雨天房屋漏个不停；

下大雨的时候不断滴漏；就像吵闹的妇人一样；

大雨之日连连滴漏，争吵的妻子也是如此；

大雨之日連連滴漏，和爭吵的婦人一樣；

下雨天連連滴漏，好爭吵的婦人就像這樣；

下雨天連連滴漏，好爭吵的婦人就像這樣；

喋喋不休的婦人，就像雨天房屋漏個不停；

下大雨的時候不斷滴漏；就像吵鬧的婦人一樣；

淫雨天不斷的滴漏：好紛爭的婦人就跟這一樣；

大雨之日連連滴漏，爭吵的妻子也是如此；

大雨之日、水滴不已、悍婦如之、

妻頑譬彼陰雨、屋宇恆漏。

好爭之妻、可比雨時屋漏水滴、

A quarrelsome wife is like the dripping of a leaky roof in a rainstorm;

A nagging wife is like the dripping of a leaky roof in a rainstorm.

A continual dripping on a rainy day and a quarrelsome wife are alike;

A quarrelsome wife is as annoying as constant dripping on a rainy day.

An endless dripping on a rainy day and a nagging wife are alike;

A constant dripping on a day of steady rain And a contentious woman are alike;

A continual dripping on a very rainy day And a contentious woman are alike;

An endless dripping on a rainy day and a nagging wife are alike.

A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.

A continual dripping on a rainy day and a contentious wife are alike.

A continual dropping on a rainy day and a contentious wife are alike:

A foolish son is the calamity of his father; And the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping.

It is better to dwell in a desert land, Than with a contentious and fretful woman.

It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, Than with a contentious woman in a wide house.

The waters wear the stones; The overflowings thereof wash away the dust of the earth: So thou destroyest the hope of man.

It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, Than with a contentious woman in a wide house.
