Proverbs 15:15-17
New Living Translation
15 For the despondent, every day brings trouble;
for the happy heart, life is a continual feast.
16 Better to have little, with fear for the Lord,
than to have great treasure and inner turmoil.
17 A bowl of vegetables with someone you love
is better than steak with someone you hate.
Proverbs 15:15-17
New International Version

but the cheerful heart has a continual feast.(A)

than great wealth with turmoil.(B)

than a fattened calf with hatred.(C)
