Proverbs 21:8-10
Authorized (King James) Version
8 The way of man is froward and strange:
but as for the pure, his work is right.
9 It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop,
than with a brawling woman in a wide house.
10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil:
his neighbour findeth no favour in his eyes.
Proverbs 21:8-10
New International Version
8 The way of the guilty is devious,(A)
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.(B)
10 The wicked crave evil;
their neighbors get no mercy from them.
