Proverbios 12

E’ meglio essere in umile stato ed avere un servo, che fare il borioso e mancar di pane.

Mejor es el que es menospreciado y tiene servidores, que el que se precia, y carece de pan.

He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread.

Better is he who is little known, and has a servant, than he who honors himself and lacks bread.
