Proverbs 21:17-19
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

17 Whoever loves pleasure will suffer want;
    whoever loves wine and oil will not be rich.
18 The wicked is a ransom for the righteous
    and the faithless for the upright.(A)
19 It is better to live in a desert land
    than with a contentious and fretful wife.
