Proverbs 17 (résumé): Better a dry crust with peace and quiet

Proverbs

 Solomon’s wisdom sayings continue now saying: Better a dry crust with peace and quiet that a house full of feasting with strife… better to meet a bear robbed of her cubs than a fool in his folly… if a man pays back evil for good, evil will never leave his house… a friend loves at all times, and a brother is born for adversity… a cheerful heart is good medicine but a crushed spirit dries up the bones… even a fool is thought wise if he keeps silent!
