Proverbs 21:19-22
New King James Version
19 Better to dwell [a]in the wilderness,
Than with a contentious and angry woman.
20 (A)There is desirable treasure,
And oil in the dwelling of the wise,
But a foolish man squanders it.
21 (B)He who follows righteousness and mercy
Finds life, righteousness, and honor.
