19Better to dwell in a wilderness land, Than with a woman of contentions and anger.
20A treasure to be desired, and oil, Is in the habitation of the wise, And a foolish man swalloweth it up.
21Whoso is pursuing righteousness and kindness, Findeth life, righteousness, and honour.
22A city of the mighty hath the wise gone up, And bringeth down the strength of its confidence.
