Proverbs 21:9-12 Catholic Public Domain Version (CPDV)

9. It is better to sit in a corner of the attic, than with a contentious woman and in a shared house.

10. The soul of the impious desires evil; he will not take pity on his neighbor.

11. When the pestilent is punished, a little one will become wiser. And if he pursues what is wise, he will receive knowledge.

12. The just thinks carefully about the house of the impious, so that he may draw the impious away from evil.
