Proverbs 15:17-22

¹⁷Better is a meal with vegetables where there is love than a fatted calf served with hatred.

¹⁸An angry man stirs up arguments, but a person who is slow to anger quiets a quarrel.

¹⁹The path of the sluggard is like a place with a hedge of thorns, but the path of the upright is a built-up highway.

²⁰A wise son brings joy to his father, but a foolish person despises his mother.

²¹Folly delights a person who lacks sense, but the one who has understanding walks a straight path.

²²Plans go wrong where there is no advice, but with numerous advisors they succeed.
