14The heart of the man of understanding seeketh knowledge; But the mouth of fools feedeth on folly.
15The days of the afflicted are all evil; But he that hath a cheerful heart hath a continual feast.
16Better is a little, with the fear of the LORD, Than much treasure, and trouble therewith.
17Better is a dinner of herbs, where there is love, Than a fatted ox, and hatred therewith.
18The passionate man stirreth up strife; But he who is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
19The way of the slothful is as a hedge of thorns; But the way of the righteous is a highway.
20A wise son maketh a glad father; But a foolish man despiseth his mother.
21Folly is joy to him who lacketh wisdom; But the man of understanding walketh uprightly.
