15 A quarrelsome wife is like the dripping

of a leaky roof in a rainstorm;

15 A continual dropping in a very rainy day

And a contentious woman are alike.

15 A quarrelsome wife is as annoying

as constant dripping on a rainy day.

15 A continual dripping on a very rainy day

And a contentious woman are alike;

15 A quarreling wife is as bothersome

as a continual dripping on a rainy day.

15 A continual dropping in a very rainy day

And a contentious woman are alike:

15 A continual dropping on a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike:

15 Constantly dripping water on a rainy day is like a quarreling woman. 

15 An endless dripping on a rainy day

and a nagging wife are alike.

15 A continual dripping on a rainy day

and a contentious wife are alike;

15 Dripping constantly on a day of heavy rain

and a woman of contention are alike.

15 A nagging wife is like

dripping that never stops on a rainy day.

15 A constant dripping on a day of steady rain

And a contentious woman are alike;
