Proverbs 15:17-19

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁷ It is better to be invited to herbs with love, than to a fatted calf with hatred.

¹⁸ A passionate man stirreth up strifes: he that is patient appeaseth those that are stirred up.

¹⁹ The way of the slothful is as a hedge of thorns; the way of the just is without offence.
