Proverbs 12:9 in other translations
He that is despised, and hath a servant, is better than he that honoureth himself, and lacketh bread.
Better to be lightly esteemed yet have a servant, than to be self-important but lack food.
Better is he who is little known, and has a servant, than he who honors himself and lacks bread.
