Proverbs 15:17-19
1599 Geneva Bible
17 Better is a dinner of green herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
18 (A)An angry man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to wrath, appeaseth strife.
19 The way of a slothful man is as an hedge of [a]thorns: but the way of the righteous is plain.
