Proverbs 27:16
restraining her is like holding back the wind or grasping oil with one’s right hand.
Whosoever hideth her hideth the wind, and the ointment of his right hand, which bewrayeth itself.
restraining her is like restraining the wind, or like grasping oil in his right hand.
He that would restrain her restraineth the wind; And his right hand encountereth oil.
