Proverbs 15:16–17 (NIV):
15:16 Better a little with the fear of the LORD than great wealth with turmoil.
15:17 Better a small serving with quietness, than a house full of feasting with strife.

These verses explicitly say one situation is "better" than another, so they are an example of a “better than” comparison.
