16 Better is a little with the fear of the Lord,Than great treasure with trouble.
17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is,Than a fatted calf with hatred.
18 A wrathful man stirs up strife,But he who is slow to anger allays contention.
19 The way of the lazy man is like a hedge of thorns,But the way of the upright is a highway.
20 A wise son makes a father glad,But a foolish man despises his mother.
21 Folly is joy to him who is destitute of discernment,But a man of understanding walks uprightly.
22 Without counsel, plans go awry,But in the multitude of counselors they are established.
