Proverbs 21:19-21
New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition
19 It is better to live in a desert land
than with a contentious and fretful wife.
20 Precious treasure remains[a] in the house of the wise,
but the fool devours it.
21 Whoever pursues righteousness and kindness
will find life[b] and honor.
