Proverbs 15:14-19 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

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.

18. The ill-tempered stir up strife,but the patient settle disputes.

19. The way of the sluggard is like a thorn hedge,but the path of the diligent is a highway.
