13A glad heart maketh a cheerful countenance; But by sorrow of heart the spirit is broken.
14The heart of him that hath understanding seeketh knowledge; But the mouth of fools feedeth on folly.
15All the days of the afflicted are evil; But he that is of a cheerful heart hath a continual feast.
16Better is little, with the fear of Jehovah, Than great treasure and trouble therewith.
17Better is a dinner of herbs, where love is, Than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
18A wrathful man stirreth up contention; But he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
19The way of the sluggard is as a hedge of thorns; But the path of the upright is made a highway.
20A wise son maketh a glad father; But a foolish man despiseth his mother.
21Folly is joy to him that is void of wisdom; But a man of understanding maketh straight his going.
22Where there is no counsel, purposes are disappointed; But in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
23A man hath joy in the answer of his mouth; And a word in due season, how good is it!
24To the wise the way of life goeth upward, That he may depart from Sheol beneath.
25Jehovah will root up the house of the proud; But he will establish the border of the widow.
26Evil devices are an abomination to Jehovah; But pleasant words are pure.
27He that is greedy of gain troubleth his own house; But he that hateth bribes shall live.
28The heart of the righteous studieth to answer; But the mouth of the wicked poureth out evil things.
29Jehovah is far from the wicked; But he heareth the prayer of the righteous.
30The light of the eyes rejoiceth the heart; And good tidings make the bones fat.
