New American Standard Bible (NASB)
Proverbs 15
15 All the days of the afflicted are bad, But a cheerful heart has a continual feast.
16 Better is a little with the fear of the Lord Than great treasure and turmoil with it.
17 Better is a dish of vegetables where love is Than a fattened ox served with hatred.
18 A hot-tempered man stirs up strife, But the slow to anger calms a dispute.
19 The way of the lazy is as a hedge of thorns, But the path of the upright is a highway.
20 A wise son makes a father glad, But a foolish man despises his mother.
21 Folly is joy to him who lacks sense, But a man of understanding walks straight.
22 Without consultation, plans are frustrated, But with many counselors they succeed.
23 A man has joy in an apt answer, And how delightful is a timely word!
24 The path of life leads upward for the wise That he may keep away from Sheol below.
25 The Lord will tear down the house of the proud, But He will establish the boundary of the widow.
