Proverbs 19:13-15
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

13 A stupid child is ruin to a father,
    and a wife’s quarrelling is a continual dripping of rain.
14 House and wealth are inherited from parents,
    but a prudent wife is from the Lord.
15 Laziness brings on deep sleep;
    an idle person will suffer hunger.
