17It is better to be invited to herbs with love, than to a fatted calf with hatred.
18A passionate man stirreth up strifes: he that is patient appeaseth those that are stirred up.
19The way of the slothful is as a hedge of thorns; the way of the just is without offence.
20A wise son maketh a father joyful: but the foolish man despiseth his mother.
