Proverbs 15:17-19

International Children’s Bible

¹⁷ It is better to eat vegetables with those who love you
    than to eat meat with those who hate you.

¹⁸ A person who quickly gets angry causes trouble.
    But a person who controls his temper stops a quarrel.

¹⁹ A lazy person’s life is as difficult as walking through a patch of thorns.
    But an honest person’s life is as easy as walking down a smooth highway.
