9 Better 'is' the lightly esteemed who hath a servant, Than the self-honoured who lacketh bread.
(Read Proverbs 12:9)
He that lives in a humble state, who has no one to wait upon him, but gets bread by his own labour, is happier than he that glories in high birth or gay attire, and wants necessaries.
