Proverbs 15:16-18

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁶ Better is little with the reverent, worshipful fear of the Lord than great and rich treasure and trouble with it.^(A)

¹⁷ Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than a fatted ox and hatred with it.^(B)

¹⁸ A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, but he who is slow to anger appeases contention.
