Proverbs 17:1-3

Young's Literal Translation

17 Better [is] a dry morsel, and rest with it, Than a house full of the sacrifices of strife.

² A wise servant ruleth over a son causing shame, And in the midst of brethren He apportioneth an inheritance.

³ A refining pot [is] for silver, and a furnace for gold, And the trier of hearts [is] Jehovah.
