Proverbs 25:24 In-Context

22 [In this way] you will make him feel guilty and ashamed, and the LORD will reward you.
23 [As] the north wind brings rain, so a whispering tongue brings angry looks.
24 Better to live on a corner of a roof than to share a home with a quarreling woman.
25 [Like] cold water to a thirsty soul, so is good news from far away.
26 [Like] a muddied spring and a polluted well, [so] is a righteous person who gives in to a wicked person.
