Proverbios 12

Mas apreciable es un pobre que sabe ganarse su vida, que un fanfarrón que ni pan tiene que comer.

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.
