Matthew Henry Commentary Proverbs 15:16-17

"Better is little, with the fear of Jehovah, Than great treasure and trouble therewith. Better is a dinner of herbs, where love is, Than a stalled ox and hatred therewith." — Proverbs 15:16-17 (ASV)

Believers often have enough when worldly eyes see little; the Lord is with them, without the cares, troubles, and temptations that accompany the wealth of the wicked.
