Proverbs 21:9-11
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition
9 It is better to sit in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling women, and in a common house.
10 The soul of the wicked desireth evil, he will not have pity on his neighbour.
11 When a pestilent man is punished, the little one will be wiser: and if he follow the wise, he will receive knowledge.

Proverbs 21:9-11
New International Version
9 Better to live on a corner of the roof
than share a house with a quarrelsome wife.(A)
10 The wicked crave evil;
their neighbors get no mercy from them.
11 When a mocker is punished, the simple gain wisdom;
by paying attention to the wise they get knowledge.(B)
