Proverbs 21:9-11

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁹ It is better to live in a corner of a roof
Than ^[a]in a house shared with a contentious woman.
¹⁰ The soul of the wicked desires evil;
His ^(A)neighbor finds no favor in his eyes.
¹¹ When the ^(B)scoffer is punished, the ^[b]naive becomes wise;
But when the wise is instructed, he receives knowledge.
