Proverbs 15:16

Modern English Version

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

See the chapter Copy

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

The blessing of the Lord makes rich, and He adds no toil to it.

All the days of the afflicted are evil, but he who is of a merry heart has a continual feast.

Better is a little with righteousness than great revenues without justice.

Better is a dry crust with quietness than a house full of feasting with strife.

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

Better is a full hand of quietness than handfuls of toil and a chasing after wind.

But godliness with contentment is great gain.
