Proverbs 15:16-18

International Children’s Bible

¹⁶ It is better to be poor and respect the Lord
    than to be wealthy and have much trouble.

¹⁷ It is better to eat vegetables with those who love you
    than to eat meat with those who hate you.

¹⁸ A person who quickly gets angry causes trouble.
    But a person who controls his temper stops a quarrel.
