Proverbs 15:17

The heart of one who has understanding seeks knowledge,

but the mouths of fools feed on folly.

All the days of the afflicted are wretched,

but one who has a cheerful heart enjoys a continual feast.

Better is little, with the fear of the LORD,

than great treasure with trouble.

A wrathful man stirs up contention,

but one who is slow to anger appeases strife.

The way of the sluggard is like a thorn patch,

but the path of the upright is a highway.

A wise son makes a father glad,

but a foolish man despises his mother.
