Proverbs 21:8-10
New King James Version
8 The way of [a]a guilty man is perverse;
But as for the pure, his work is right.
9 Better to dwell in a corner of a housetop,
Than in a house shared with (A)a contentious woman.
10 (B)The soul of the wicked desires evil;
His neighbor finds no favor in his eyes.
