Proverbs 25:24-26

Living Bible

²⁴ It is better to live in a corner of an attic than in a beautiful home with a cranky, quarrelsome woman.

²⁵ Good news from far away is like cold water to the thirsty.

²⁶ If a godly man compromises with the wicked, it is like polluting a fountain or muddying a spring.
