Proverbs 15:16

Catholic Public Domain Version

Better is a little with the fear of the Lord, than great treasures and dissatisfaction.

See the chapter Copy

For in you, Lord, I have hoped. You will listen to me, O Lord my God.

The blessing of the Lord causes riches. Affliction will not be a companion to them.

All the days of the poor are evil. A secure mind is like a continual feast.

Better is a little with justice, than many fruits with iniquity.

A dry morsel with gladness is better than a house full of sacrifices along with conflict.

Better is the pauper walking in his simplicity, than the rich walking in ways of depravity.

"A handful with rest is better than both hands filled with labors and with affliction of the soul."

But piety with sufficiency is great gain.
