Proverbs 17:1

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

Better a meal of vegetables where there is love
than a fattened ox with hatred.

Better to live on the corner of a roof
than to share a house with a nagging wife.

Better to live in a wilderness
than with a nagging and hot-tempered wife.

The little that the righteous man has is better
than the abundance of many wicked people.

“I’ve made fellowship offerings;
today I’ve fulfilled my vows.

than two handfuls with effort and a pursuit of the wind.
