Proverbs 15:16-18
New Century Version
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 People with quick tempers cause trouble,
but those who control their tempers stop a quarrel.
Proverbs 15:16-18
New International Version
16 Better a little with the fear of the Lord
than great wealth with turmoil.(A)
17 Better a small serving of vegetables with love
than a fattened calf with hatred.(B)
