15. All the days of the afflicted are evil; But he that is of a cheerful heart hath a continual feast.
16. Better is little, with the fear of Jehovah, Than great treasure and trouble therewith.
17. Better is a dinner of herbs, where love is, Than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
18. A wrathful man stirreth up contention; But he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.
19. The way of the sluggard is as a hedge of thorns; But the path of the upright is made a highway.
20. A wise son maketh a glad father; But a foolish man despiseth his mother.
