מִדְיָן in Scripture

Proverbs 18:18 The lot causeth contentions to cease, and parteth between the mighty. Proverbs 18:19 A brother offended is harder to be won than a strong city: and their contentions are like the bars of a castle. Proverbs 19:13 A foolish son is the calamity of his father: and the contentions of a wife are a continual dropping. Proverbs 21:9 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house. Proverbs 21:19 It is better to dwell in the wilderness, than with a contentious and an angry woman. Proverbs 23:29 Who hath woe? who hath sorrow? who hath contentions? who hath babbling? who hath wounds without cause? who hath redness of eyes? Proverbs 25:24 It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house. Proverbs 26:21 As coals are to burning coals, and wood to fire; so is a contentious man to kindle strife. Proverbs 27:15 A continual dropping in a very rainy day and a contentious woman are alike.
