Proverbs 12:10


Proverbs 12:9 Proverbs 12:10 (KJV) Proverbs 12:11
[He that is] despised, and hath a servant, [is] better than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread.
A righteous [man] regardeth the life of his beast: but the tender mercies of the wicked [are] cruel.
He that tilleth his land shall be satisfied with bread: but he that followeth vain [persons is] void of understanding.
