Proverbs 15:17-22 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

17. It is better to eat vegetables with those who love youthan 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.

20. A wise son makes his father happy.But a foolish person hates his mother.

21. A man without wisdom enjoys being foolish.But a man with understanding does what is right.

22. Plans fail without good advice.But plans succeed when you get advice from many others.
