⁸ Better `is' a little with righteousness, Than abundance of increase without justice.

¹⁶ Better `is' a little with the fear of Jehovah, Than much treasure, and tumult with it.

¹⁷ Better `is' an allowance of green herbs and love there, Than a fatted ox, and hatred with it.

²⁵ The righteous is eating to the satiety of his soul, And the belly of the wicked lacketh!

³³ The curse of Jehovah `is' in the house of the wicked. And the habitation of the righteous He blesseth.

⁹ Lest I become satiated, and have denied, And have said, `Who `is' Jehovah?' And lest I be poor, and have stolen, And have laid hold of the name of my God.

²⁶ For to a man who `is' good before Him, He hath given wisdom, and knowledge, and joy; and to a sinner He hath given travail, to gather and to heap up, to give to the good before God. Even this `is' vanity and vexation of spirit.

⁶ `Better `is' a handful `with' quietness, than two handfuls `with' labour and vexation of spirit.'

¹¹ `Our appointed bread give us to-day.
