Proverbs 12:27

The deceitful man does not even roast that which he took in hunting: but the substance of a diligent man is precious.

The soul of the sluggard desires, and attains nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

Tet A little that a righteous man has is better than the many riches of the sinners.

Better is little with the fear of the LORD than great treasure and trouble therewith.

Better is a little with righteousness than a great number of fruits with injustice.

and put a knife to thy throat if thou art a man given to appetite.

The slothful hides his hand in his bosom; it grieves him to bring it again to his mouth.

and put a knife to thy throat if thou art a man given to appetite.

The slothful hides his hand in his bosom; it grieves him to bring it again to his mouth.

The slothful man hides his hand in his bosom and will not so much as bring it to his mouth again.

The desire of the slothful kills him; for his hands refuse to labour.

As the door turns upon his hinges, so does the slothful upon his bed.
