Proverbs 15:18


Proverbs 15:17 Proverbs 15:18 (KJV) Proverbs 15:19
Better [is] a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
A wrathful man stirreth up strife: but [he that is] slow to anger appeaseth strife.
The way of the slothful [man is] as an hedge of thorns: but the way of the righteous [is] made plain.
