'Works' in the Bible
Poor is he who works with a negligent and idle hand,But the hand of the diligent makes him rich.
Better is he who is lightly esteemed and has a servant,Than he who [boastfully] honors himself [pretending to be what he is not] and lacks bread.
Commit your works to the Lord [submit and trust them to Him],And your plans will succeed [if you respond to His will and guidance].
The appetite of a worker works for him,For his hunger urges him on.
A happy heart is good medicine and a joyful mind causes healing,But a broken spirit dries up the bones.
If you [claim ignorance and] say, “See, we did not know this,”Does He not consider it who weighs and examines the hearts and their motives?And does He not know it who guards your life and keeps your soul?And will He not repay [you and] every man according to his works?
A lying tongue hates those it wounds and crushes,And a flattering mouth works ruin.
She looks for wool and flaxAnd works with willing hands in delight.
Give her of the product of her hands,And let her own works praise her in the gates [of the city].
