Proverbs 21:20

Proverbs Of Solomon

¹⁹ Better to live in a wilderness
than with a nagging and hot-tempered wife. ²⁰ Precious treasure and oil are in the dwelling of a wise person,
but a foolish man consumes them. ²¹ The one who pursues righteousness and faithful love
will find life, righteousness, and honor.
