Proverbs 15:17
NIV Better a meal of vegetables where there is love
       than a fattened calf with hatred.
KJV Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
NASB Better is a dish of vegetables where love is
         Than a fattened ox served with hatred.
Proverbs 15:17
Commentary
A plate of vegetables in an atmosphere of love is better than a filet mignon roast where there is strife. Moffatt says, "Better is a dish of vegetables, than the best beef served with hatred."
A fatted calf is one that has been raised in a stall and given the best feed; its meat is tender and delicious.

NASB One who is gracious to a poor man lends to the LORD,
         And He will repay him for his good deed.

He who shuts his ear to the cry of the poor
         Will also cry himself and not be answered.
Proverbs 21:13

Commentary 
       A person who is indifferent to people in need will find no one helping him when he calls out for help.

Do not boast about tomorrow,
         For you do not know what a day may bring forth.
Proverbs 27:1

Commentary 
    The uncertainty of health, circumstances, and life itself point to the truthfulness of this maxim. Nowhere is the urgency of immediate action more crucial than in the matter of one's eternal destiny (Is. 1:18; 2 Cor. 6:2; Heb. 3:7, 8). Of the future even the wisest of men are ignorant, for all time beyond this very moment is known only to God (James 4:13, 14).

Ecclesiastes 11:5
NIV As you do not know the path of the wind,
       or how the body is formed in a mother's womb,
       so you cannot understand the work of God,
       the Maker of all things.
KJV As thou knowest not what is the way of the spirit, nor how the bones do grow in the womb of her that is with child: even so thou knowest not the works of God who maketh all.
NASB Just as you do not know the path of the wind and how bones are formed in the womb of the pregnant woman, so you do not know the activity of God who makes all things.
Ecclesiastes 11:5

Proverbs 5:21-22
NIV For a man's ways are in full view of the LORD,
       and he examines all his paths.

The evil deeds of a wicked man ensnare him;
       the cords of his sin hold him fast.

KJV For the ways of man are before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings. His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins.
NASB For the ways of a man are before the eyes of the LORD,
         And He watches all his paths.
His own iniquities will capture the wicked,
         And he will be held with the cords of his sin.
Proverbs 5:21-22

Proverbs 23:4
NIV Do not wear yourself out to get rich;
       have the wisdom to show restraint.
KJV Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom.
NASB Do not weary yourself to gain wealth,
         Cease from your consideration of it.
Proverbs 23:4

Commentary

    It is not worth ruining one's health for riches that have the habit of elusively disappearing.

Children and their Responsibility in the role  in the Parents Life:
 
Hear, my son, your father's instruction
         And do not forsake your mother's teaching;
Indeed, they are a graceful wreath to your head
         And ornaments about your neck. \ Proverbs 1:8
 

Commentary 

    Both the OT and the NT agree that children have only one responsibility in the family-to obey their parents. The admonition of Solomon is more fully explained by Paul in Eph. 6:1-3: "Children, obey your parents in the Lord, for this is right. 'Honor your father and mother,' which is the first commandment with promise: 'that it may be well with you and you may live long on the earth.'" "Children" is an inclusive term. It is not a matter of either sex or age that is involved.
