Proverbs 21:7-9
The Voice
7 Wicked people will be swept up in their own violence
because they refuse to seek justice.
8 Dishonest people walk along the crooked path they have made,
but the innocent travel the straight course they have laid.
9 It is better to dwell outside on the corner of your roof
than to live inside your house with a badgering wife.
Proverbs 21:7-9
New International Version
7 The violence of the wicked will drag them away,(A)
for they refuse to do what is right.
8 The way of the guilty is devious,(B)
but the conduct of the innocent is upright.
9 Better to live on a corner of the roof
than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.(C)
