Proverbs 25:23-25

English Standard Version Anglicised

²³ The north wind brings forth rain,
    and a backbiting tongue, angry looks.
^24 (A)It is better to live in a corner of the housetop
    than in a house shared with a quarrelsome wife.
²⁵ Like cold water to ^(B)a thirsty soul,
    so is ^(C)good news from a far country.
