12A scoffer does not 'ahav ·affectionately love· to be reproved; he will not go to the wise.
13A glad heart makes a cheerful face; but an aching heart breaks the spirit.
14The heart of one who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.
15All the days of the afflicted are wretched, but one who has a cheerful heart enjoys a continual feast.
16Better is little, with the fear of Adonai , than great treasure with trouble.
