Proverbs 15:15-21

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

¹⁶Better is a little with the dread of the Lord, than many treasures and unfillable.

¹⁷It is better to be called to worts with charity, than with hatred to a calf made fat.

¹⁸A wrathful man raiseth chidings; he that is patient, assuageth chidings that were raised.

¹⁹The way of slow men is as an hedge of thorns; the way of just or rightwise men is without thing of hurting.

²⁰A wise son maketh glad his father; but a fond or foolish man despiseth his mother.

²¹Folly is joy to a fool; but a prudent man shall address his steps.
