Compare all

13 ^aA merry heart makes a cheerful¹ countenance,
But ^bby sorrow of the heart the spirit is broken.

14 The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge,
But the mouth of fools feeds on foolishness.

15 All the days of the afflicted are evil,
^aBut he who is of a merry heart has a continual feast.

16 ^aBetter is a little with the fear of the Lord,
Than great treasure with trouble.

17 ^aBetter is a dinner of¹ herbs where love is,
Than a fatted calf with hatred.
