15All the days of the afflicted are evil: But he that is of a merry heart hath a continual feast.
16Better is little with the fear of the Lord 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 strife: But he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
19The way of the slothful man is as a hedge of thorns: But the way of the righteous is made plain.
20A wise son maketh a glad father: But a foolish man despiseth his mother.
21Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: But a man of understanding walketh uprightly.
22Without counsel purposes are disappointed: But in the multitude of counsellers they are established.
23A man hath joy by the answer of his mouth: And a word spoken in due season, how good is it!
