Proverbs 15:17-19

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹⁷ Better is a dinner of vegetables where love is
    than a fatted ox and hatred with it.^(A)
18 Those who are hot-tempered stir up strife,
    but those who are slow to anger calm contention.^(B)
19 The way of the lazy is overgrown with thorns,
    but the path of the upright is a level highway.^(C)
