Wisdom of Ben Sira 26:4-6

New Catholic Bible

⁴ Whether rich or poor, his heart is content,
    and his face is always wreathed in smiles.
⁵ There are three things that cause my heart to quake,
    and a fourth that terrifies me:
slanderous charges in the city, the gathering of a mob,
    and false accusations—all these are worse than death.
⁶ But when a wife is jealous of a rival, it causes heartache and sorrow,
    and everyone suffers the scourge inflicted by her tongue.
