Proverbs 15:17-22

1. 17 Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.

2. 18 A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but he that is slow to anger appeaseth strife.

3. 19 The way of the slothful man is as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous is made plain.

4. 20 A wise son maketh a glad father: but a foolish man despiseth his mother.

5. 21 Folly is joy to him that is destitute of wisdom: but a man of understanding walketh uprightly.

6. 22 Without counsel purposes are disappointed: but in the multitude of counsellors they are established.
