Proverbs 16:26

A worker's appetite works for him; his mouth urges him on.

All the toil of man is for his mouth, yet his appetite is not satisfied.

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself; if you scoff, you alone will bear it.

In all toil there is profit, but mere talk tends only to poverty.

and to aspire to live quietly, and to mind your own affairs, and to work with your hands, as we instructed you,

nor did we eat anyone's bread without paying for it, but with toil and labor we worked night and day, that we might not be a burden to any of you.
