Proverbs 27:16

WYC

NIV

16 He that withholdeth her, (is) as if he holdeth (the) wind; and voideth the oil (out) of his right hand. (He who trieth to hold her, is like him who trieth to hold the wind; and like him who trieth to pick up oil with his fingers.)
16 restraining her is like restraining the wind or grasping oil with the hand.
