Proverbs 15:16

English Standard Version 2016

Better is a little with the fear of the Lord than great treasure and trouble with it.

See the chapter Copy

Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues with injustice.

Better is the little that the righteous has than the abundance of many wicked.

But godliness with contentment is great gain,

Better is a poor man who walks in his integrity than a rich man who is crooked in his ways.

The blessing of the Lord makes rich, and he adds no sorrow with it.

All the days of the afflicted are evil, but the cheerful of heart has a continual feast.

Better is a handful of quietness than two hands full of toil and a striving after wind.

Better is a dry morsel with quiet than a house full of feasting with strife.
