Proverbs 21:6-12

⁶The getting of treasures by a lying tongue is a vanity tossed to and fro by them that seek death.

⁷The robbery of the wicked shall destroy them; because they refuse to do judgment.

⁸The way of man is froward and strange: but as for the pure, his work is right.

⁹It is better to dwell in a corner of the house-top, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.

¹⁰The soul of the wicked desireth evil: his neighbor findeth no favor in his eyes.

¹¹When the scorner is punished, the simple is made wise: and when the wise is instructed, he receiveth knowledge.

¹²The righteous man wisely considereth the house of the wicked: but God overthroweth the wicked for their wickedness.
