Better is a little with righteousness, than great revenues without right - (Proverbs 15:16.) "Better:" for the tranquility of conscience, for the present enjoyment of this life, and for the life to come. In Proverbs 15:16 we are warned against gain without religion ("the fear of the Lord"): in Proverbs 15:17, against gain without love to our neighbour: here, against gain "without right."
