Proverbs 21:18-20
International Standard Version
18 The wicked are ransom for the righteous,
and the unfaithful for the upright.
19 It’s better to live in the wilderness
than to live with a contentious and irritable woman.
20 Precious treasures and oil are found[a] where the wise live,
but a foolish man devours them.
