Proverbs 15:14-16
EasyEnglish Bible
14 Wise people want to learn more.
But fools only want to know useless things.
15 Every day is difficult, if you have trouble in your mind.
But if you are happy, every day is like a feast.
16 You may be poor, but you respect and obey the Lord.
That is better than if you are very rich, but you have a lot of trouble.
Proverbs 15:14-16
New International Version
14 The discerning heart seeks knowledge,(A)
but the mouth of a fool feeds on folly.
15 All the days of the oppressed are wretched,
but the cheerful heart has a continual feast.(B)
16 Better a little with the fear of the Lord
than great wealth with turmoil.(C)
