Proverbs 15:14-16

Modern English Version

¹⁴ The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge,
    but the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.

¹⁵ All the days of the afflicted are evil,
    but he who is of a merry heart has a continual feast.

¹⁶ Better is little with the fear of the Lord
    than great treasure with trouble.
