Proverbs 21:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁸ When trouble comes,
    wicked people receive the pain instead of righteous people.
¹⁹ It is better to live alone in a desert
    than to live with a wife who quarrels and complains.
²⁰ Wise people store valuable things and good food in their houses.
    But foolish people waste everything immediately.
