15. All the days of the oni are ra'im, but he that is of a tov lev hath a mishteh tamid (a continual feast).

16. Better is little with the Yirat Hashem than otzar rav (great treasure) and trouble therewith.

17. Better is a meal of yarak (vegetables) where love is, than a fatted calf and sinah (hatred) therewith.

18. An ish chemah (angry man) stirreth up madon (strife), but he that is slow to anger pacifies a quarrel.

19. The derech (road) of the atzel (sluggard, lazy one) is a thorny hedge, but the orach yesharim (way of the upright) is a highway.

20. A ben chacham maketh glad an av, but a kesil adam despiseth immo.

21. Folly is simchah to him that is destitute of lev [of discernment], but an ish tevunah walketh uprightly.
