Proverbs 15:17

  • NET: Better a meal of vegetables where there is love
    than a fattened ox where there is hatred.
  • NASB: Better is a dish of vegetables where love is
    Than a fattened ox served with hatred.
  • ESV: Better is a dinner of herbs where love is
    than a fattened ox and hatred with it.
  • NIV: Better a meal of vegetables where there is love
    than a fattened calf with hatred.
  • TNIV: Better a small serving of vegetables with love
    than a fattened calf with hatred.
  • NLT: A bowl of vegetables with someone you love is better
    than steak with someone you hate.

    KJV?
    “Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith”

    I hate when my ox is stalled…must be the cold MI mornings and a flooded carburetor…
