Proverbs 21:7-9

New American Standard Bible

⁷ The violence of the wicked will sweep them away,
Because they ^(A)refuse to act with justice.
⁸ The way of a guilty person is ^(B)crooked,
But as for the pure, his conduct is upright.
⁹ It is better to live on a corner of a roof
Than ^[a]in a house shared with a contentious woman.
