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

18 ^aA wrathful man stirs up strife,
But he who is slow to anger allays contention.

19 ^aThe way of the lazy man is like a hedge of thorns,
But the way of the upright is a highway.

20 ^aA wise son makes a father glad,
But a foolish man despises his mother.

21 ^aFolly is joy to him who is destitute of¹ discernment,
^bBut a man of understanding walks uprightly.
