Proverbs 25:24-26
New International Version
24 Better to live on a corner of the roof
than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.(A)
25 Like cold water to a weary soul
is good news from a distant land.(B)
26 Like a muddied spring or a polluted well
are the righteous who give way to the wicked.
Proverbs 25:24-26
King James Version
24 It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house.
25 As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.
26 A righteous man falling down before the wicked is as a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.
