Proverbs 21:17-22

¹⁷He that loveth pleasure will be a poor man; He that loveth wine and oil will not be rich.

¹⁸The wicked shall be a ransom for the righteous! And in the room of the upright shall be the transgressor.

¹⁹It is better to dwell in a desert land Than with a contentious and fretful woman.

²⁰Precious treasure and oil are in the dwelling of the wise; But the foolish man swalloweth them up.

²¹He who followeth after righteousness and mercy Shall find life, prosperity, and honor.

²²A wise man scaleth the city of the mighty, And bringeth down the strength in which it trusted.
