Proverbs 21:8-10
Legacy Standard Bible
8 The way of a guilty man is (A)perverse,
But as for the pure, his work is upright.
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 craves evil;
His (B)neighbor finds no favor in his eyes.
