Shekel HaKodesh · On Sufficiency, Chapter 1

‹›
  1. 1

    אמר
    אשר יסתפק במעט / אנוש עשיר כמו מלך,
    ומלך רב ואין די לו / במלכותו כמו הלך.

    He who with little is well content is rich indeed as a king; and a king, in his greatness, is poor as the pedlar, when his kingdom sufficeth him not.
