Proverbs 21:21

The wicked is a ransom for the righteous,

the treacherous for the upright.

It is better to dwell in a desert land,

than with a contentious and fretful woman.

There is precious treasure and oil in the dwelling of the wise,

but a foolish man swallows it up.

A wise man scales the city of the mighty,

and brings down the strength of its confidence.

Whoever guards his mouth and his tongue

keeps his soul from troubles.

The proud and arrogant man—“Scoffer” is his name—

he works in the arrogance of pride.
