¹⁶Better a little with the fear of the Lord
than great wealth with turmoil.^(A)

Proverbs 15:16

King James Version

¹⁶Better is little with the fear of the Lord than great treasure and trouble therewith.

17 Better a dry crust with peace and quiet
than a house full of feasting, with strife.^(A)

17 Better is a dry morsel, and quietness therewith, than an house full of sacrifices with strife.

⁶Better one handful with tranquillity
than two handfuls with toil^(A)
and chasing after the wind.

⁶Better is an handful with quietness, than both the hands full with travail and vexation of spirit.
