Proverbs 21:19-23

¹⁹It is better to live alone in a desert than to live with a wife who is always nagging and complaining.

²⁰Wise people have many valuable things in their houses, but foolish people quickly spend/waste all their money.

²¹Those who always try to act in a fair and kind way toward others will live a long time and be honored/respected.

²²A wise army commander helps his troops climb over a wall to attack a city that is defended by a strong army, with the result that they are able to ◄get over/destroy► the high walls that their enemies trusted would protect them.

²³Those who are very careful about what they say MTY are able to avoid trouble.
