Proverbs 15:12-17 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

12. Scoffers do not love reproof;to the wise they will not go.

13. A glad heart lights up the face,but an anguished heart breaks the spirit.

14. The discerning heart seeks knowledge,but the mouth of fools feeds on folly.

15. All the days of the poor are evil,but a good heart is a continual feast.

16. Better a little with fear of the Lordthan a great fortune with anxiety.

17. Better a dish of herbs where love isthan a fatted ox and hatred with it.
