Proverbs 21:7-9

American Standard Version

⁷ The violence of the wicked shall sweep them away,
Because they refuse to do justice.
⁸ The way of him that is laden with guilt is exceeding crooked;
But as for the pure, his work is ^[a]right.
⁹ It is better to dwell in the corner of the housetop,
Than with a contentious woman in ^[b]a wide house.
