Proverbs 25:24
King James VersionSource notes
“better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house.”
Context
21If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:
22For thou shalt heap coals of fire upon his head, and the LORD shall reward thee.
23The north wind driveth away rain: so an angry countenance a backbiting tongue.
24better to dwell in the corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman and in a wide house.
25cold waters to a thirsty soul, so good news from a far country.
26A righteous man falling down before the wicked a troubled fountain, and a corrupt spring.
27not good to eat much honey: so to search their own glory glory.
