Better is a dinner of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith.
Better (is) a dinner (Hebrew, 'ªruchat (H737 ) - a traveler's dinner; food for a journey) of herbs where love is, than a stalled ox and hatred therewith. After the "fear of the Lord," in Proverbs 15:16, follows "love" toward, and on the part of, one's neighbour. This shows the kind of "feast" which the Holy Spirit commends (Proverbs 15:15).
