Proverbs 15:15-17

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹⁵ All the days of the desponding and afflicted are made evil [by anxious thoughts and forebodings], but he who has a glad heart has a continual feast [regardless of circumstances].

¹⁶ Better is little with the reverent, worshipful fear of the Lord than great and rich treasure and trouble with it.^(A)

¹⁷ Better is a dinner of herbs where love is than a fatted ox and hatred with it.^(B)
