Proverbs 21:17-19

The Message

¹⁷ You’re addicted to thrills? What an empty life!
    The pursuit of pleasure is never satisfied.

¹⁸ What a bad person plots against the good, boomerangs;
    the plotter gets it in the end.

¹⁹ Better to live in a tent in the wild
    than with a cross and petulant spouse.
