   • Proverbs 17:1, with translation of the Jewish Publication Society:

     טוֹב פַּת חֲרֵבָה וְשַׁלְוָה־בָהּ מִבַּיִת מָלֵא זִבְחֵי־רִיב׃‎

     tóv pát kharevá v'shalva-váh mibáyit malé ziv'khei-rív.
     ṭōḇ paṯ ḥărēḇā wəšalwā-ḇāh mibbáyiṯ mālē ziḇəḥē-rīḇ.

     Better is a dry morsel and quietness therewith, than a house full of feasting with strife.
