Proverbs 21:18-20

Modern English Version

¹⁸ The wicked will be a ransom for the righteous,
    and the transgressor for the upright.

¹⁹ It is better to dwell in the wilderness
    than with a contentious and angry woman.

²⁰ There is treasure to be desired and oil in the dwelling of the wise,
    but a foolish man squanders it.
