TWOT Reference: 426c
The following spelling is supported by Strongs and Gesenius: מדין.
strife, contention
Strong's Number H4079 matches the Hebrew מִדְיָן (miḏyān),
which occurs 9 times in 9 verses
in the WLC Hebrew.
A brother offended is harder to win over than a fortified city,
And contentions [separating families] are like the bars of a castle.
A foolish (ungodly) son is destruction to his father,
And the contentions of a [quarrelsome] wife are like a constant dripping [of water].
It is better to live in a corner of the housetop [on the flat roof, exposed to the weather]
Than in a house shared with a quarrelsome (contentious) woman.
It is better to dwell in a desert land
Than with a contentious and troublesome woman.
Who has woe? Who has sorrow?
Who has strife? Who has complaining?
Who has wounds without cause?
Whose eyes are red and dim?
It is better to live in a corner of the housetop [on the flat roof, exposed to the weather]
Than in a house shared with a quarrelsome (contentious) woman.
Like charcoal to hot embers and wood to fire,
So is a contentious man to kindle strife.
