Proverbs 15:11-16

¹¹Hell and perdition be open before the Lord; how much more the hearts of the sons (and daughters) of men.

¹²A man full of pestilence loveth not him that reproveth him; and he goeth not to wise men.

¹³A joyful heart maketh glad the face; (but) the spirit is cast down in the mourning of (the) soul.

¹⁴The heart of a wise man seeketh teaching; and the mouth of fools is fed with unknowing, (or with ignorance).

¹⁵All the days of a poor man be evil; a secure soul is a continual feast. (All the days of the poor be evil; the life of a secure soul is a continual feast.)

¹⁶Better is a little with the dread of the Lord, than many treasures and unfillable. (Better is a little with the fear of the Lord or with reverence for the Lord, than many treasures and troubles.)
